ILLINOIS TAX CREDIT SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM
The Illinois Tax Credit Scholarship Program has enabled countless students across the state to attend private schools that would have otherwise been out of reach for their families.
The Archdiocese is requesting our support for House Bill 4126 (HB4126), which allows for prioritizing scholarship recipients beyond one year until they no longer qualify for the program. HB4126 also creates opportunities for partial scholarships to award scholarships to more families. If you are available to travel to Springfield for one day between March 8- April 8 to advocate for this House Bill, please send a brief email to Rachel Meiner. RMeiner@trinityhs.org. When we are contacted with an exact date we will follow up with you.
