How Journalism Connects Systems, Power and People
December 2, 2025 @ 5:30 pm – 8:30 pm
Join us for a conversation with Illinois Answers reporters as they share what they’ve uncovered investigating economic opportunity, government finance, public safety, childcare and the needs of the most vulnerable.
Together, they reveal how inequities and accountability failures overlap across systems — and how journalism can bridge people, policy, and power to create a more accountable Chicago and a fairer Illinois.
- 5:30 – 6:00 PM: Check-In + Happy Hour
- 6:00 – 7:30 PM: Panel Discussion + Q&A
- 7:30 – 8:30 PM: Light Bites + Open Bar
Join us! Tickets are a $20 donation each. Please RSVP by Dec. 1 by registering here. Space is limited.
