Social Security supports millions of Illinois residents—retirees, people with disabilities, and families who rely on earned benefits to stay afloat. In every one of our 102 counties, this vital program helps cover essentials like housing, food, and healthcare.

We know Illinois residents rely on Social Security in different ways, which is why we're gathering stories from every county to highlight its real impact on everyday lives. We'll share these stories with elected officials to show what's at stake and why action is needed to strengthen Social Security for current and future generations.
