Voucher plans are sweeping the country, transferring public funds to private schools.

Many Illinois residents don’t realize we have a voucher program right here in the form of a tax credit “scholarship” program, known as Invest in Kids.

Our expert panel will look at this national trend, examine the research on student achievement in voucher schools, get a glimpse of the impact of vouchers on students in our neighboring state of Indiana, and present important information about Invest in Kids. Learn how you can join the campaign endorsed by more than 50 local, state and national organizations to end the program permanently!
