Chelsea Laliberte, an advocate for those impacted by drug and mental health issues, is running as a Democratic candidate for state representative in House District 51, which includes areas of south central Lake and northern Cook counties.
The co-founder of Live4Lali and the Lake County Opioid Initiative announced her candidacy Tuesday, asking voters for support to show what an informed, independent voice can do in Springfield. It is her first run for public office.
I m not afraid to make good trouble or work hard to fix the root causes of our problems, she said in a statement. We can get Illinois back on track economically by prioritizing access to quality holistic health care, education, housing and job training/placement.
