CHAIR'S REPORT  
Chair Conroy made the following remarks:  
Welcome to 2026! I hope you all had a wonderful and restful holiday season with your families.  
I came back into the office in early January energized to begin a new year of initiatives and  
programs that will sustain and improve the lives of DuPage residents.  
To that end, I’ll report one impressive statistic I learned recently. Since its opening on September  
2nd, our DuPage Crisis Recovery Center has seen 743 individuals, with 139 of those being  
youth. I hope you are as gratified as I am to know that our mission to provide that safe place for  
people suffering from a mental health or addiction crisis is being successfully met right here in  
our community. Kudos to the DuPage Health Department staff and of course their  
leadership…Board President Sam Tornatore, and Board Members including Paula Deacon  
Garcia and Saba Haider. I’m impressed by the impact we are having already, just a few months  
after opening.  
On today’s agenda there is a discussion item to note. We received notification last week that the  
County Clerk filed an appeal of Judge Bryan Chapman’s ruling in favor of DuPage County,  
which was announced in December. Civil Division Chief Lisa Smith of the State’s Attorney’s  
Office is here today to answer any of the Board’s questions on this matter. We’ll take this up at  
the end of the meeting before we get to Old and New Business.
