"The purpose of this event is to help individuals with a suspended Illinois driver’s license navigate our sometimes tricky system and connect them with the proper services to get back on the road with a valid driver’s license to avoid further fines and buildup of court costs," Emily Hejna, Public Information Officer/SOR Coordinator Alton Police Department said.
"On-site at the event we will have the following:
Illinois Secretary of State DL Hearings Officers
Illinois Secretary of State Mobile Unit to print DL/IDs
Madison County State’s Attorneys and Judges
Illinois Treasurer representatives
Child Support help
Insurance providers
Counseling services
Veterans’ Assistance
Volunteer private attorneys for consultations
Social service providers
And multiple employers looking for workers."
Hejna continued and said: "This is the first event of its kind in our area that we know of, (especially organized by a police department). The event would not be possible without the cooperation of the city with local law firms as well as concerned citizens and social groups within Alton."
