Thank you to all of the parents who participated in our parent surveys this year! Your responses will be reviewed to assist in the development of next year's campaign.

If you're looking to get involved for the 2025-2026 school year or have any questions please reach out to Josh Strelitz at jstrelitz2@lakecountyil.gov



Please take a few moments to fill out this survey, which will help guide our efforts and better understand the needs of parents when addressing underage drinking.
