DPH-STROKE AWARENESS CAMPAIGN

Amends the Department of Public Health Powers and Duties Law of the Civil Administrative Code of Illinois. Requires the Department of Public Health to partner with Governors State University in establishing a 6-month outreach and educational campaign focused on promoting stroke awareness within Chicago's Southland community, stroke recognition and prevention strategies, and access to reliable sources of information about strokes. House Floor Amendment No. 1 Replaces everything after the enacting clause with the provisions of the introduced bill with the following changes. Provides that the stroke awareness campaign shall be established subject to appropriation. Requires the Department of Public Health to partner with Governors State University's College of Health and Human Services (rather than with Governors State University) in establishing a 12-month (rather than 6-month) campaign focused on promoting stroke awareness for select communities determined by the Department to be at risk for strokes, particularly within Chicago's Southland community (rather than promoting stroke awareness within Chicago's Southland community). Provides that appropriated moneys shall be made available to the Governors State University's College of Health and Human Services in an amount to be mutually agreed upon between the Governors State University's College of Health and Human Services and the Department. Makes other changes.
