Share Your Input at Our May 7 Family Advisory Council Open Forum

We invite all Illinois families of children with special healthcare needs to share their feedback and experiences at this virtual forum.

Join us for an opportunity to connect with other families and share your feedback on topics that matter to you. 

Our next Family Advisory Council (FAC) open forum is on May 7 from 9 to 11 a.m. 

Members will discuss how they can partner with the Division of Specialized Care for Children (DSCC) to share their families’ stories, successes and helpful tips and resources they’ve learned along the way. 

The FAC will also open the floor to hear your ideas as they discuss DSCC’s messaging to families, digital communication channels and more.  

This free virtual meeting is for all Illinois families of children with special healthcare needs. You do not have to be a Division of Specialized Care for Children (DSCC) participant to attend. 

You can sign up on Zoom to join the meeting. Please note that live Spanish translation will be available.

The FAC guides our efforts to strengthen teamwork, improve communication and empower families to have a voice in their children’s care. The council also connects families to resources and other families who are on a similar journey. 

You can find the minutes from past meetings and more details on our website’s Family Advisory Council page. You can also learn more about some of our FAC members on our Meet Our Family Advisory Council Members page.

If you have questions or would like more details on how to participate in the FAC, please email dsccfac@uic.edu.

We hope to see you on May 7!
