“We were inspired by SSFS’s ‘Tell 7 Campaign’ which raised awareness about the lack of promised funding our shelter has received from the State of Illinois,” said Anne Bailey from Action for a BetterTomorrow South Suburbs. “This is one way our motivated community can show support for families who are victims of domestic violence.”

ABT, a grassroots advocacy group founded after the 2016 election, is already over 32,000 strong, making it one of the fastest growing grassroots groups in the state. ABT South Suburbs alone has over 620 members. ABT’s chapters, including its active South Suburbs Chapter, will be hosting such meet & greets with candidates throughout the election season to empower and educate its membership and local communities.

ABT is a unique group that has gained popularity because of its sophisticated approach to action and civic engagement. ABT focuses on vetted, meticulously-researched actions and an exclusive series of policy trainings and seminars, empowering its membership to be more informed, prepared and ready to create a better world for future generations.
