All Week Long
Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle unveiled the Medical Examiner Case Archive Dashboard today. The dashboard provides direct, transparent access to vital information about opioid-related, gun-related and temperature-related deaths.
“Opioids and guns are the two greatest causes of unnatural deaths in Cook County, they are also the most preventable,” said President Preckwinkle. “Cook County’s Black and Brown communities are most impacted by these deaths. The goal here is not to build dashboards with frightening statistics. The goal is to make the need for these dashboards obsolete.”
More than 1200 supporters attended when UNCF (United Negro College Fund) held its 41st Annual Walk for Education recently along Chicago’s lakefront at South DuSable Lake Shore Drive at 39th Street in Burnham Park.
The event raised more than $100,000, and the donation link to the Chicago Walk will remain open through Sept. 30.
