Lieutenant Governor hopeful Joe Birkett has recently given thirty new grants to help pay for new drug prevention programs in the Dupage County area. State’s attorney Joe Birkett has collected 9,973 dollars this yearfor these drug prevention programs. This money was obtained from Dupage County drug dealers who lost their cash and property through cases over the past year. Dupage County has offered over 130,000 dollars worth of grants towards financially helping programs, that offer scholarships to children with a low income, and drug-addicted students who need rehabilitation. These drug prevention programs have recently helped students in the schools of St. Raphael School in Naperville, Kennedy Junior High School and St. Joan of Arc Schoo both which are in Lisle.
