This Office allows an Investigator at the IDFPR to neglect his duties to investigate an RN with a motor skills impairment and continue to practice over the course of 2 years from the initial complaint!

had a deeply frustrating experience with the Illinois Attorney General's Office. After filing a claim against company, the assigned caseworker delayed responding to me for a long time. When I reached out today to express my dissatisfaction and request to speak to a manager, she refused—both by email and phone—to provide any escalation options. This left me feeling disregarded and trapped in a cycle of inaction. Based on my experience, it's probably better to handle issues with a company through private legal channels, as the state of Illinois has a reputation for doing nothing and using more of their time to dismiss your claim if your feeling their not taking the time to properly look into your concerns. Unfortunately, my case was a perfect example of that inaction. I hope this helps individuals in the future.

This office hosts the address confidentiality program for DV victims and survivors and knows that participants have been located due to the lax rules the program has regarding enforcement yet has chosen to ignore the issue completely. These same rules leave confidentiality at the discretion of other agencies-including voting offices- forcing participants to choose between the decision to vote or remain safe in the program. Countless attempts to reach someone about the failings of the program that takes states funds have done nothing to resolve the issue. I guess if you can so easily deny those who have already suffered a means of voting, you don't have to care because they can't vote against you without risking being found and revictimized. Also, the director of the ACP has knowingly held an application for 18 months without processing due to the applicant being disabled.
