Erika Harold – Candidate, Attorney General, 2018 Election

Sexual and domestic violence is epidemic throughout Chicago and our state, affecting people from all walks of life. Because the Illinois Attorney General’s Office has wide-ranging authority in the implementation and enforcement of policies addressing these issues, leaders and anti-violence experts from six Chicago-based organizations, including Life Span, asked our 2018 Attorney General candidates to complete a questionnaire about their plans for the following and more:

  • Ensuring colleges and universities comply with the Preventing Sexual Violence in Higher Education Act
  • Managing the Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner (SANE) program
  • Providing training and seminars to law enforcement regarding gender-based violence
  • Administering the Violent Crime Victims Assistance Fund and the Domestic Violence Fund

We received responses from Erika Harold and Kwame Raoul. We hope the candidates’ responses will help inform your vote for the Nov. 6 election.
