EverThrive IL is excited to share our newly released 2025 Annual Report: Community As Resistance. This year’s report highlights the powerful ways our community has come together to protect, uplift, and advocate for equitable health care across Illinois. Over the past year, EverThrive IL has mobilized individuals across the state to demand a system that centers dignity, access, and justice for all.
Our efforts to achieve policy change have yielded hard-won victories, including legislation that expands and protects the rights and resources of birthing people and their families. Alongside this advocacy, our education initiatives have empowered tens of thousands to trust their own experiences, define their own goals, and maintain autonomy in every aspect of their care.
None of this progress would be possible without you: our supporters and partners in the work. Your commitment fuels our advocacy, strengthens our outreach, and powers a growing movement for healthy, thriving communities across Illinois.
As we look ahead to 2026, we are hopeful and thankful to have you as our partner in this critical work. Your continued support ensures that all people in Illinois have access to the high-quality healthcare they deserve, allowing them to thrive.
Thank you for standing with us in community and resistance.
With gratitude,

Chi Chi Okwu
Executive Director
