In 2023, Illinois became the first state in the country to end money bond and expand access to the presumption of innocence. With more people returning to the community, the Pretrial Success pilot program was created to help communities expand access to vital services such as mental health and substance use disorder support, transportation, and child care for people awaiting trial.

This essential investment in community safety is now in jeopardy due to budget cuts. Tell your legislators to save the Pretrial Success Act by continuing this pilot program for another year.
