ARPA-funded community health grant award recipients announced
The McHenry County Department of Health (MCDH) is pleased to announce the recipients of the Community Health Grant, funded by the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA). These funds, totaling $1,215,000, are aimed at supporting COVID-19 recovery projects that align with the health priorities identified in the MCDH’s 2022 Community Health Plan.
National ARPA funding provided $350 billion in additional funding for state and local governments to address the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and stimulate economic recovery. The Advance McHenry County program allocated $1.2 million to the Department of Health for projects that must obligate funds by December 31, 2024, and spend them by December 31, 2026.
The Community Health Grant initiative focuses on supporting projects in Behavioral Health, Obesity & Active Living, Diabetes, and Access to Care. These projects are designed to provide long-term benefits to the community, ensuring a sustainable public health improvement as the county continues to recover from the pandemic.
Melissa Adamson, Public Health Administrator at the McHenry County Department of Health stated, “We are thrilled to allocate Community Health Grant funds to such dedicated community organizations. The efforts of these organizations will significantly enhance our ability to address key community health priorities and improve the well-being of McHenry County residents.”
Behavioral Health
Home of the Sparrow received $50,000 to offer on-site counseling and crisis intervention at their transitional shelter.
“This funding will enable HOS to deliver on-site mental health counseling and therapies to adults and children recovering from the trauma of homelessness, domestic violence, and other serious comorbidities with the goal of improving coping skills, interpersonal relationships, and overall wellbeing,” said Matt Kostecki, Executive Director of Home of the Sparrow.
NAMI McHenry County and the Suicide Prevention Taskforce were awarded $98,000 to enhance their suicide prevention efforts, training high-risk individuals and implementing support groups.
“This grant will allow the task
force to train thousands of additional individuals in QPR Suicide Prevention training, conduct a county-wide advertising campaign to highlight the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline, and start a new support group for survivors of suicide,” said Abbey Nicholas, Co-Leader of the McHenry County Suicide Prevention Task Force and Executive Director of NAMI McHenry County.
The Youth and Family Center of McHenry County was awarded $270,000 to expand mental health programming for youth and adults in McHenry County.
Obesity & Active Living
Cycling Without Age McHenry County was awarded $43,000 to support their recreational rides for seniors, reducing social isolation and loneliness. “This grant will enable our service to be expanded from thirteen to nineteen elder care facilities, and to increase the total number of trishaw rides we provide annually by 36%. With this funding, we can’t wait to give even more lonely and isolated seniors the right to feel the wind in their hair!” said Greg Glover, President of Cycling Without Age McHenry County.
Veteran’s Path to Hope received $93,000 to assist veterans with weight loss, healthy eating, exercise, and understanding the factors contributing to obesity and lack of selfcare. “Veterans Path to Hope was asked to collaborate on a program that provides individual coaching for veterans struggling with weight and related health concerns. Receiving this funding allows us to offer this unique opportunity and impact the lives of a small group of veterans that do not have access to a similar service,” said Laura Franz, Executive Director of Veterans Path to Hope.
Diabetes Family Health Partnership Clinic was awarded $182,386 to provide an intensive program for patients with complex
diagnoses, with an emphasis on diabetes. Suzanne Hoban, Executive Director of Family Health Partnership Clinic, said, “Because people without health insurance tend to delay medical care because of cost, our patients tend to come to us with multiple complex issues. This funding will allow us to dedicate staff to specific patients and assist these complex patients with navigating the myriad of needs and health care services they require.”
Community Health Partnership of Illinois received $52,932 to provide a Diabetes Self-Management Program at the Harvard Health Center.
Cultivating Health Ministries received $145,342 to expand its no-cost Diabetes Prevention Services. “Along with our partner agencies, Cultivating Health Ministries collectively addresses the social determinants of health needs of the community to assist in providing a healthier lifestyle with dignity, respect, and compassion,” said the Cultivating Health Ministries Collaboration Council.
Access to Care
Advocate Health Care received $157,500 to support positive changes at McHenry County food pantries, conduct a heart health program at McHenry County food pantries, and train health care professionals in Narcan distribution and education. “The funds will allow Advocate Health Care to increase support for McHenry County food pantries by using the Nutrition Environment Food Pantry Assessment Tool (NEFPAT), which helps identify policy, systems and environmental changes that can be made to increase patrons’ access to healthy foods. Additionally, the funds will enable us to support the expansion of the Narcan Training Crew, allowing Advocate Health Care to train more health care professionals in Narcan administration and education. Finally, we will implement the community-based
Love Your Heart health program at McHenry County food pantries. This program helps decrease blood pressure levels for residents with hypertension by providing free blood pressure cuffs and education on how to self-monitor at home,” said Jeanne Ang, Director of Community Health, North Illinois Area, at Advocate Health Care.
New Directions Addiction Recovery Services received $52,840 to conduct a Connect to Recovery program in local hospitals. “By providing peers in recovery on-site in local Emergency Rooms we personally support these individuals, giving them a path out of the cycle of SUD that otherwise ends tragically in overdose or alcohol related illness all too often,” said Bobby Gattone, Executive Director of New Directions Addiction Recovery Services.
Warp Corps received $70,000 to purchase a van to more easily reach those in need. Andrew Turner, Street Outreach Supervisor, said, “With the vehicle provided by this funding, Warp’s mission will be able to connect so many more members of our community to the resources they need to live healthy and full lives.”
These awards come on the heels of another successful Advance McHenry County project, the recently opened Foglia Center for Advance Technology and Innovation, which was awarded $1.69 million. The McHenry County Board has approved over $27.7 million in awards through the Advance McHenry County program to date. The program is funded through American Rescue Plan Act dollars, which have been invested directly into infrastructure capital projects, workforce development and jobs programs, nonprofit agencies, special districts, and local governments.

Lake County Public Defender retires after
37 years of service
“Today, we celebrate the remarkable career of a truly exceptional individual, the retirement of head public defender Joy Gossman. She is the first female and the longest-serving public defender in the history of Lake County. It is an honor to acknowledge the contributions Joy has made to our legal community and the justice system as the Lake County Public Defender,” said Deputy Chief Judge Patricia S. Fix on behalf of herself and Chief Judge Daniel B. Shanes on July 1. Joy Gossman began her career as an intern with the Lake County Public Defender’s Office in 1987. Since 1989, she has served in every division of the Office. In 1997, she was promoted to Deputy Chief Public Defender, and in 2007, she was appointed Chief Public Defender, serving in that role for 17 years.
Deputy Chief Judge Fix stated, “Over the years, Joy has shown an unwavering commitment to justice, ensuring that the most vulnerable among us receive the defense they deserve. Her dedication is a testament to her character and a source of inspiration for all of us. Through countless cases, she has demonstrated a deep sense of empathy, a sharp legal mind, and an unyielding dedication to upholding the principles of fairness and equality.”
“Working with Joy for the past 37 years has been my privilege. We have worked collaboratively, whether adversarial or with her as Public Defender and me as Judge. It has been a pleasure; she has been an activist. The system would have failed without her vision and ability to collaborate with the courts and all our justice partners. Thank you, Joy, for your leadership and service. You have the admiration of your colleagues and all of us at the 19th Judicial Circuit. You have served on the frontlines; you have served justice, ensuring the indigent accused have their rights protected. That is your legacy,” said Circuit Judge Victoria A. Rossetti.
“After 37 years of defending the indigent accused and the last 17 years serving as the Public Defender, I decided it was time to retire. I am thankful for the opportunity that the Circuit Judges of the Nineteenth Judicial Circuit gave me; instilling confidence needed to lead the Lake County Public Defender’s Office. Their appointment allowed me to expand the Office, increase the number of attorneys on staff, add social workers, and hire an immigration analyst, investigators, and support staff. Thank you to my mentors throughout my career; the guidance has been invaluable. I could not have imagined spending my entire legal career serving as a public defender. However, I knew after my first day in the Office as an intern through today that I was doing what I was always meant to do,” said Lake County Public Defender Joy Gossman.
Under the law, the Circuit Judges of the Nineteenth Judicial Circuit select the Lake County Public Defender. That individual then independently manages the Public Defender’s Office. As the search for a new Public Defender begins, an interim Public Defender will be named to fulfill the role until a permanent placement is announced.

Butch Patrick, aka Eddie Munster, to greet
Cynthia Wolf contribUtor
theater visitors Aug. 14
At first, when the man on the other end of the phone introduced himself as Eddie Munster, Scott Dehn thought it was a prank.
“I almost hung up on him,” said Dehn, owner of the McHenry Outdoor Theater. “I thought that my dad was playing a trick on me.”
But it was no joke. It was, in fact, Butch Patrick on the line. Patrick — a child actor who rocketed to stardom portraying the young Eddie Munster on the hugely popular 1960s show “The Munsters” — had a proposal for Dehn. Patrick is testing the waters for a planned collaboration with outdoor theaters nationwide, and said he’d like to do an appearance at the McHenry Outdoor in conjunction with his concept. So get excited, Munsters fans: He’ll do just that on Wednesday, Aug. 14.
“He’s on a mission to help outdoor theaters not only survive but also thrive,” Dehn said of Patrick. “We’re going to have a lot of fun with this. We’ll have live music, some vendors selling related merch — and we’ll feature “Munster, Go Home!” as well as “The Addams Family.”
The fun will begin about 6:30 p.m. at the theater, 1510 Chapel Hill Road, Lakemoor. Those attending are encouraged to get their best Eddie
Munster or Wednesday Addams on.
There will be a costume contest with a top prize of $100 each for the best two look-alikes — plus a pair of gold passes to the Volo Museum, granting access to both the museum and Jurassic Gardens.
Those in attendance also will get to see one of the Volo Museum’s latest acquisitions.
“What a crazy coincidence,” said Jim Wojdyla, marketing director for the museum. “Just today [Aug. 2] we acquired Eddie’s Go Cart from the show. It’s the only one in existence!”
Wojdyla said he looks forward to having Patrick climb in and sign the go cart at the Outdoor Theater Aug. 14.
Patrick, who grew up in rural Illinois and Missouri, said he already has visited a couple of Iowa drive-ins testing the waters for his idea of packaging double features from old public domain films created in the 1930s, ’40s and ’50s. The films he’s targeting were among the first fare featured at outdoor theaters that once numbered about 4,000 in the nation, and now number fewer than 400. Enjoying films at outdoor theaters is something that Patrick, who celebrated his 71st birthday Aug. 2, affectionately recalls from his own youth.
“These theaters are part of Americana,” he said. “If you were lucky enough to have gone when you were a
t Community events, car washes, festivals, lemonade stands, school projects – people at work and at play. We are interested!
t Show the community what your group has been doing!
t NO EXPERIENCE NEEDED!
t Just shoot and e-mail!
t We need you to ID everyone in the photo first and last names required
t Tell us what’s happening in the photo
t Please do NOT crop your photos.
t Tell us who took the photo and we will give them a photo credit
kid, you remember it fondly.”
Patrick said he hopes to help theaters improve their midweek attendance with nostalgic films and possibly “stars and cars” appearances. The aim, he said, is to see the nation’s remaining outdoor theaters not only continue to exist, but also to prosper.
“You can stream a movie at home. You can go to a multiplex,” Patrick said. “There are a lot of ways to experience a movie. But there’s only one way to experience a drive-in, and that’s to physically go out to one. I hope to meet a lot of McHenry Outdoor fans on Aug. 14.”
The meet-and-greet, live music and more will be included with the regular price of theater admission. That is $14 for adults, and $8 for military and those ages 60 and older, as well as for children ages 3 to 11. Those younger than 3 are admitted free. Anyone who has recently visited the Volo Museum can exchange their wristband for a free popcorn at the theater. Those visiting the theater also can get $2 off entry to the Volo Museum by presenting their theater ticket stub.

Rinehart provides annual report to Lake County Board
Highlights increased pre-trial detention under the SAFE-T Act
On July 30, Lake County State’s Attorney Eric Rinehart provided his annual report to the Law & Judicial Committee of the Lake County Board. Each year, since 2020, Rinehart has provided crime statistics to the Committee while also detailing the office’s new programs and budgetary needs. Rinehart also used the opportunity to discuss the ways in which the SAFE-T Act permits prosecutors to hold dangerous offenders prior to trial.
“With increased law enforcement resources, innovative community programs, and expanded victim support, the Lake County justice and safety system is working together to prevent crime and hold offenders accountable. We are seeing a significant decrease in violent crime across all communities even as we strive to prevent every incident,” Rinehart said this morning at the committee’s public hearing.
Rinehart presented data compiled from law enforcement agencies that showed a 55% decrease in homicides between 2022 and 2023.
Rinehart explained that, unfortunately, 2022 involved four mass casualty events – including the Highland Park parade shooting which claimed seven lives and three domestic violence tragedies which led to the murder of eight family members of the three offenders.
In 2023, there were 24 homicides in Lake County which was the lowest total in at least seven years. As of July 30, 2024, there have been 10 homicides in Lake County in 2024– a 29% decrease from the county’s total at this point on July 30, 2023. But Rinehart added, “This reduction is not enough. Our goal is to be a county that reaches zero homicides.”
Law enforcement agencies also reported to the State’s Attorneys’ Office that there had been a 44% reduction in non-fatal, firearm injuries between 2022 and 2023, in Waukegan, North Chicago,
and Zion.
Rinehart emphasized the important work of law enforcement and the Gun Violence Prevention Initiative. “Clearance rates are moving up because of the hard work of law enforcement and the increased use of technology in all parts of the justice system. Our forensic cyber lab continues to increase its capabilities due to a grant we secured in 2021. This allows us to search the phones of shooters, armed robbers, and sex offenders. I believe this is one of the reasons why these crimes are decreasing.”
State’s Attorney Rinehart also addressed the ongoing work of the office to execute a comprehensive strategy with respect to the opioid crisis. “I am proud of the work of the Lake County Opioid Initiative, the Health Department, and community partners like NIRCO to save lives with expanded treatment and the implementation of harm reduction strategies. These heroes on the front lines of helping others. At the same time, since 2022, we have increased law enforcement training regarding the investigation of opioid poisoning deaths, and we are working with the Lake County Coroner, Jennifer Banek, to collect more evidence to hold accountable drug dealers who sell the drugs that is causing so much death.”
Rinehart ended his presentation by distribution preliminary data regarding the SAFE-T Act. The SAFE-T Act went into effect on September 18, 2023. Rinehart explained that, despite misinformation related to the 2022 elections, the SAFE-T Act had led to more dangerous offenders being held than the cash system.
“The new system lets us hold the most dangerous offenders without having to worry about them posting cash. Under the new system, our outstanding prosecutors are successfully detaining sex offenders, domestic abusers, and weapon offenders – and those offenders are staying in the jail at much higher percentages than the cash system.”
The SAFE-T Act preliminary data can be found at https://www.lcsao.org/ DocumentCenter/View/323/ SAFE-T-Act-Preliminary-Data?bidId=.

Sheriff’s reports
Man that lives at home with in-home child daycare business charged with child pornography
Jose Real Lake County Sheriff’s Detectives arrested a Grayslake man, whose family member runs an in-house child daycare, for possessing hundreds of videos and images of child pornography.
Sheriff’s detectives conducted an investigation after learning videos containing child pornography were being downloaded and shared from a residence in the 1200 block of Chesterfield Lane, Grayslake. After obtaining enough information, sheriff’s detectives applied for and obtained a search warrant for the home.
On July 19, sheriff’s detectives conducted the search warrant at the residence. Just prior to detectives entering the home, one of the people living at the home, Jose Real, 52, appeared to hide his cellular phone in a potted plant. Sheriff’s detectives were able to quickly find the hidden phone, which they seized.
Following the search warrant, sheriff’s detectives conducted a forensic examination of the phone, which required bypassing the phone’s passcode. Upon examining the phone, sheriff’s detectives located what appeared to be over 1,000 videos and images of child pornography, some of which involved children as young as infants. Based on the evidence, they determined Real was responsible for downloading and sharing the child pornography videos.
On July 30, sheriff’s detectives obtained an arrest warrant for Real for three counts of possession of child pornography of children under the age of 13 (class 2 felonies). Real was arrested by sheriff’s
deputies on July 31 without incident.
During the investigation, sheriff’s detectives learned that Real’s family member runs a daycare out of the same home. Sheriff’s detectives are actively investigating to determine if any of the recovered child pornography is linked to the children who were being supervised at the home.
The Lake County Sheriff’s Office asks the community to speak to your children about inappropriate touching and grooming. If you feel your child has been victimized, please contact your local law enforcement agency.
The Lake County State’s Attorney’s Office filed a petition to detain Real in custody while awaiting trial. This morning, a Lake County Judge ordered Real to be held in the Lake County Jail pending his detention hearing.
Sheriff John D. Idleburg said, “I cannot stress it enough; we will relentlessly investigate and arrest those who prey on our most vulnerable. Our Criminal Investigations Division continues to proactively investigate those who hide in the shadows of the internet and exploit our children.”
DCFS was alerted to the situation, and the daycare is no longer allowed to operate while the investigation is underway.
Additional charges are likely.
Update from detention hearing:
Friday, Aug. 2, a Lake County Judge granted the State’s petition to detain Jose Real, 52, who is being charged with three counts of Child Pornography, a class 2 felony.
During the detention hear-
ing, the State argued that Real’s pre-trial release would pose a real and present threat to the safety of the community because the possession of child pornography is not only a sex crime but also a violent crime. Prosecutors pointed out that the children in these images and videos are being harmed every time this content is disseminated. Prosecutors also noted how important it is to curb the demand for such illegal and harmful material.
After the detention hearing, Lake County State’s Attorney Eric Rinehart stated, “With the SAFE-T Act, we are able to keep our children safe from predators like this one. Under the cash system, based on preliminary data, seven out of every 10 offenders charged with child pornography were posting large amounts of cash and getting out on bail. Ever since the SAFE-T Act went into effect, we have held EVERY offender being charged with possession of child pornography.”
Real is scheduled for a preliminary hearing on August 29.
Sheriff’s dispatchers,
deputies save life of man
Several Lake County Sheriff’s employees saved the life of a man attempting self-harm in unincorporated Gurnee.
On July 31, at approximately 10:30 p.m., Lake County Sheriff’s 911 Emergency Telecommunicators received a 911 call from the wife of a man attempting selfharm. The man was in mental distress and threatened he was going to hang himself. After making the threat, the man went to a detached garage at the residence and locked the door. The man’s wife then
called 911.
Sheriff’s telecommunicators obtained critical information from the caller, and immediately relayed that information to responding deputies. Within minutes of receiving the dispatch, the first deputy arrived at the scene. The initial deputy found the side door to the garage locked, so she forced entry to the door, went inside, and found the man hanging in the garage. The initial deputy grabbed the man by his feet and legs, lifting him upwards to relieve pressure on his neck. A second deputy arrived and was able to cut the man down.
Paramedics, who were previously summoned, made entry and began care. The man was transported to an area hospital, where he was breathing and had a pulse.
Sheriff John D. Idleburg said, “This is the type of heroic and life-saving work I have been accustomed to seeing nearly every day from our staff at the Lake County Sheriff’s Office. This is yet another example of our sheriff’s dispatchers and deputies working together to save the life of someone in their worst moment. We are all hopeful this man makes a full recovery.”
The Lake County Sheriff’s Office reminds the community that they are never alone. Anyone needing someone to talk to, or needing services can call or text 988, 24/7, or the Lake County Crisis Care Line at 847-377-8088, 24/7.
SUV vs. mini electric bike crash under investigation
A child is in critical condition after a crash involving an SUV and mini electric bike occurred in unincorporated
McHenry. McHenry County Sheriff’s Office, McHenry Fire Protection District, and LifeNet responded at about 9:50 a.m. on July 31 to a crash in the 5200 block of Lake Street in unincorporated McHenry.
The child, riding a Razor MX350, was struck in the intersection of N Lake Street and West Pleasant View Drive by a 2018 Toyota Highlander.
The child was flown to Loyola Medical Center by LifeNet with life-threatening
injuries and remains in critical condition. The driver of the Highlander declined medical attention.
The driver of the Highlander was issued a citation for not driving on right side of a two laned road. The crash remains under investigation with McHenry County Major Crash Investigation Unit and the Department of Children and Family Services. This is an open investigation which could lead to additional charges.
Early morning altercation leads to shooting
Antioch Police detectives are continuing their investigation into an altercation that resulted in a shooting early Wednesday morning. Investigators have so far charged two individuals with their roles in the incident, with additional charges possible against others. The additional charges are pending ballistic and forensic analysis from the crime lab.
On Thursday, 20-year-old D’Angelo Conver of Zion was formally charged with Unlawful Use of a Weapon, a Class X Felony. He appeared in court Thursday morning and was denied bond.
A 17-year-old Antioch resident who will not be identified per State Law was charged with two (2) counts of Unlawful Use of a Weapon, a Class X Felony, and a Class 2 Felony. The Juvenile was transported to the Hulse Juvenile Detention Center.
Additionally, two (2) Ghost Guns were recovered as part of the investigation. One of these guns had an illegal 50-round drum magazine, and both were equipped with illegal fully automatic conversion switches. A Ghost Gun is an illegal firearm that is made from either parts purchased separately or produced using 3D printing, and lacks a serial number, making it difficult to trace.
The Antioch Police Department would like to thank the Lake County State’s Attorney’s Office for their work on this case. In addition to the assistance from the State’s Attorney’s Office, the Antioch Police Department was assisted by the North Chicago Police Department, the Gurnee Police Department, the Fox Lake Police Department, the Lake Villa Police Department, and the Lake County Sheriff’s Office.
In the time immediately after the report of the shooting, an alert Lake County Sheriff’s deputy spotted a vehicle matching the description of an involved vehicle near the area of Main Street, just north of Route 173. This alert deputy conducted a traffic stop which led to the quick apprehension of several suspects and was a key part of the quick resolution of the incident.
Antioch Police Chief Geoffrey Guttschow is grateful for the assistance by the other law enforcement agencies.
“The fast response and thorough investigation by the Antioch Police Department and our partner agencies led to the quick apprehension and charges against the individuals responsible for this incident,” said Guttschow. “As crimes such as what happened in our community occur throughout the suburbs, leveraging the resources and knowledge of our investigative teams results in arrests and safer communities.”
Chief Guttschow would also like to highlight the courage of several residents who called 9-1-1 upon hearing gunshots, which aided in the quick response of officers.
Antioch Mayor Scott Gartner echoed Chief Guttschow’s appreciation of the officers involved in this investigation.
“This type of crime is not tolerated in Antioch. I am grateful for the swift actions of our police department and supporting agencies,” said Gartner. “Their commitment to justice has made our community safer and shown the strength of our law enforcement partnerships. I look forward to seeing those arrested prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.”
More information is expected to be released when additional charges are approved.
