Celebrating Supportive Living Week 

Power of the Pen 

Victory Centre of Park Forest residents reached out to congress in a letter-writing campaign in support of Senate Bill 1785, which effectively relinks the supportive living rate to 60 percent of the nursing home rate in Illinois on July 1, 2019. Supportive Living provides affordable quality housing, care and lifestyle options.
