Linsey Davis To Release New Children’s Book ‘How High Is Heaven?’ P8
2 NEWS Assessor’s Office Refunds $15 Million To Cook County Neighborhoods In figures released today, Cook County Assessor Fritz Kaegi announced the collection of more than $15 million dollars over the past three years from people receiving tax exemptions for which they were not eligible. The office collected the funds from taxpayers who did not meet the state eligibility requirements and from estates of those who were recently deceased. Of the $5.1 million collected in 2021, $3.5 million was refunded back to communities in Cook County to pay for services such as schools, parks, libraries, and first responders. “As the Cook County Assessor, one of my most important jobs is to ensure property tax savings exemptions only go to those who qualify,” said Assessor Kaegi. “Since the beginning of my administration, our Erroneous Exemptions Investigations Department has done this work at no cost to Cook County taxpayers. The refunds they’ve collected contribute to lowering property taxes for residents and business owners.” Investigations Department has done this work at no cost to Cook County taxpayers. The refunds they’ve collected contribute to lowering property taxes for residents and business owners.” Automatic renewals of exemptions over the last two years helped ease the administrative burden on homeowners during the height of the pandemic. To ensure that only qualified households received property tax savings, the Erroneous Investigation Exemption (EEI). Department conducted extensive audits. As a result of these audits, the EEI department recovered more than $1.4 million over the past three years, including more than 300 exemptions that would have otherwise been received on behalf of deceased individuals. Since Assessor Kaegi took office in 2019, the Erroneous Exemptions Investigations department has operated at a surplus at no cost to Cook County taxpayers. The cost of salaries and investigations conducted by the department is paid through late fees and penalties charged to those who received exemptions for which they were not qualified. Common findings are households that no longer meet the income requirements or receive exemptions on dual properties. Any surplus funds are used to pay for the operations of the department in the following year. Automatic renewal of exemptions will be granted again this year and the EEI department will continue its rigorous audits to ensure that only those who qualify continue to receive exemptions. In March and April, homeowners who may no longer qualify for exemptions will be mailed letters informing them that they must reapply. In the event that a homeowner discovers that they are no longer eligible, they can also fill out a waiver form, removing the exemption.

Foot Locker, Inc and LISC announce funding for 16 organizations NEW YORK PRNewswire -- Foot Locker, Inc., through the Foot Locker Foundation, and the Local Initiatives Support Corporation (LISC) have announced grant funding for nonprofit community organizations that empower youth in Black, Indigenous, and people of color (BIPOC) communities. Known as the Foot Locker Foundation Community Empowerment Program, the $3 million joint effort was announced last year to bridge gaps driven by racial inequity and promote youth empowerment and community wellness—all while supporting community-based organizations led by people of color. For both LISC and Foot Locker, Inc., this funding is part of larger national efforts focused on economic opportunity and racial equity. The program draws from Foot Locker, Inc.’s $200 million commitment to its Leading Education and Economic Development (LEED) initiative, which is focused on fueling education and economic opportunity within the Black community. It also connects to LISC’s Project 10X strategy to break down systemic barriers and support racial justice. In this first round of funding of $1.26 million, LISC and Foot Locker, Inc. identified 16 high-impact programs across 12 metro
areas. A second round of funding is planned for spring 2022. The grants also respond to the philanthropic gap facing BIPOC-led organizations. In fact, a 2020 assessment from The Bridgespan Group and Echoing Green found that Black-led nonprofits, like those included among the grantees, had unrestricted net assets that were 76 percent lower than those of White-led groups, making it more difficult to operate their organizations and grow their impact. “The past few years have been difficult for young people—particularly in Black and Brown communities that have been disproportionately impacted by the pandemic,” noted LISC CEO Lisa Glover.The 16 organizations funded by the Community Empowerment Program have been awarded grants ranging from $25,000$100,000 each, depending on the programs being supported. They include to Chicago organizations: Spark Chicago, Chicago Mentorship program that matches students with committed mentors for 13 weeks of engagement each spring.

Gary Teachers Union President to Testify on Proposed State School Takeover
Dunham: “Takeovers are a cynical way for lawmakers to show that they are doing something for schools desperately in need of sincere help; in reality, they are perpetrating a fraud on the community. GARY, Ind.—The proposed state takeover of the Gary public schools is a terrible example of lawmakers more interested in a power grab than actually working with educators and community to make beneficial improvements, the president of the Gary Teachers Union will testify at a House hearing Thursday. The House Education Committee will hold a hearing Thursday on HB 1187, which would create a permanent state-appointed advisory school board for the Gary Community School Corporation and would prohibit the existence of a teachers union and ban collective bargaining. “Let’s be clear: state takeovers are a harmful power grab devoid of actual ideas or plans to improve schools. Takeovers have failed in city after city because their focus is on taking away the voices of local education officials, educators and parents, not investing in proven programs, services and funding to truly move the needle,” said GTU President GlenEva Dunham. Dunham also said state takeovers historically have targeted communities of color, like Gary. “Takeovers are a cynical way for lawmakers to show that they are doing something for schools desperately in need of sincere help; in reality, they are perpetrating a fraud on the community. Gary schools need real investment in programs with track records to make a difference. That’s what Gary educators and parents are fighting for,” she said.
Rep. Kelly Highlights Impact of Child Tax Credit on Illinois Families
1,363 Payments Distributed in December in Illinois Today Marks the First Time in Six Months Hardworking Families Will Not Receive this Transformational Tax Cut Congresswoman Robin L. Kelly (IL-02) For first time in six months families will not receive the expanded and improved monthly Child Tax Credit by calling for the passage of the Build Back Better Act. On December 15, 1,363 payments went out to hardworking families across Illinois. According to Columbia University, these monthly payments are reducing food insecurity, and families overwhelmingly spent this money on food and other basic needs. “Prior to the passage of the American Rescue Plan, too many children and families who would benefit most from a Child Tax Credit were left behind including 48% of children in Illinois’ Second Congressional District,” said Congresswoman Kelly. “Now, after six months of payments, the evidence is clear. The expanded and improved monthly Child Tax Credit works. We must continue the progress brought to Illinois families by President Biden and Congressional Democrats’ American Rescue Plan. We must pass the Build Back Better Act and extend the Child Tax Credit.” Over the long term, research has found that an extra $3,000 in a family’s annual income when a child is younger than five leads to 19% higher future earnings, and a growing body of academic research finds that public investments in children yield significant long-term returns with economy-wide benefits, as healthier, more educated kids grow up to be more productive workers with higher earnings. This, in turn, also generates higher future revenues.
Van Pelt announces $1.4 million investment in West Side pre-apprenticeship programs State Senator Patricia Van Pelt (D-Chicago) announced over $1 million in investments for pre-apprenticeship programs on the West Side through the Illinois Works program. “With this investment, local organizations will create jobs and wealth for the community at large,” Van Pelt said. “I am happy that West Side pre-apprenticeship programs will receive much needed backing for training and wraparound supportive services.” The following organizations in the 5th District received over $1.4 million in investments: · Chicago Women in Trades, $500,437 · Revolution Workshop, $400,777 · Safer Foundation, $500,000 Comprehensive pre-apprenticeship programs can help participants gain admission to apprenticeship programs, which provide a greater opportunity to obtain employment in the construction trades.

Better School Days Ahead with
Egg-Powered Recipes (Family Features) The school year can be full of challenges, but fueling kids for a full day of learning tops the priority list. Affordable and easy to prepare, eggs are a key ingredient for successful days in the classroom. From a wide variety of breakfast options for even the pickiest of eaters to a nearly limitless menu of lunches, eggs keep kids full and energized to conquer each school day. As one of the only foods that naturally have vitamin D, eggs offer a nutrient critical for building strong bones. Eggs also help the body absorb nutrients like vitamin E and carotenoids that are found in plant foods, making them a perfect partner for veggies that might be a hard sell for some kids. Additionally, they’re one of the best sources of choline, which is critical for brain health and development at every age and stage. What’s more, between learning and down time, many kids spend a lot of hours in front of electronic screens. The lutein and zeaxanthin found in egg yolks can help protect their eyes from harmful blue light. Try these easy recipes that support eye health, brain health and nutrient absorption, and are easy to prepare ahead of time. To learn more about the nutritional benefits of eggs and find more family-friendly recipes featuring eggs, search #ProteinPrepSchool on social media or visit IncredibleEgg.org

On-Trend Home
DESIGNS FOR 2022
(Family Features) A home design that blends multiple elements seamlessly can be both inviting and visually interesting. If you’re planning to upgrade your living space in 2022, consider incorporating materials like stone and brick, which bring color, texture and functionality while complementing some of this year’s leading design trends. Settling on a design aesthetic is the first step for most renovation projects, but it can be a challenge for many homeowners. If you’re in need of inspiration for a project on the horizon, consider these 2022 trends from the design experts at Glen-Gery: Warm Colors Look for a shift toward warmer colors like beige, tan, caramel, cocoa and even black. Designers are moving from cool grays to a warmer coffee-inspired palette. The use of warmer colors on structural elements of a home, like brick, stone, siding, doors and shutters, offer visual warmth while making a statement. Textures and Patterns Textures and patterns are popping up in many on-trend designs. Texture can enhance the overall feeling of a space by offering depth and complexity that draws a visitor into the room. The use of texture in a design element, like stone or brick, can provide visual interest and engage the mind with a tactile response that encourages interaction with the environment. Outdoor Inspiration Nature is inspiring an array of design elements this year. You may see this trend emerging through increased use of glass for light and views of nature, as
well as continued focus on the versatile and transitional indoor-outdoor spaces that gained momentum during the height of the pandemic. Approaches may vary depending on the homeowner’s style and climate, but examples include larger patios in brick and stone, as well as more functional private patios and porches. Another aspect of this trend is the tendency for homeowners to integrate indoor conveniences such as kitchens, fireplaces, furniture and electronics into their outdoor spaces. Clean Lines This season, designers are creating inviting, comfortable and serene spaces with modern vibes through the use of clean lines in design, materials and furnishings. One trick is integrating elements that transfer light or give an illusion of illumination from a higher sheen, such as glass brick. The play of light and shadows simultaneously blends inspiration from nature with sleek lines and dramatic focal points to evoke a sense of balanced calm and strength. This approach can also come to life through ceiling windows, furnishings and the use of stone, brick and wood on statement walls or accents.

LIVING
(StatePoint) As the third most expensive holiday on the calendar, according to Wallet Hub, Valentine’s Day expenses can quickly add up. With a little planning however, you can design a memorable, do-ityourself date that truly shows that special someone how much you care, while saving time and money in the process. The experts at Dollar General are here to help with budget-friendly Valentine’s date essentials to gush over! Devoted Decorations Adding just a few small romantic details around the house can create an intimate ambiance. Place flowers on the dinner table and light candles for a fresh aroma. Give the candles a festive touch by adding burlap and heart pendants around the sides using these crafting instructions from Dollar General: dollargeneral.com/inspiration. Create mood lighting by turning off all main sources of light and spreading tea light candles throughout the space instead. Dress up the rest of the house with red, pink or white banners on the walls and mantle, or with homemade crafts such as a Puzzle Piece Frame or cards.
Next, plan a romantic dinner and sweet treats to follow. Homemade food can mean more than ordering an expensive meal at a restaurant or takeout, especially when the meal is delicious, nutritious and doesn’t break the bank. Consider using Dollar General’s “Better For You” recipes, such as the Pecan-Crusted Salmon, Steak & Veggie Kabobs, or Slow Cooker Pork Chops to serve a tasty meal that is also affordable. Finish the feast on a sweet note with a dessert that can be shared between a couple or a group of loved ones, such as Valentine’s Day Truffles.
