Tax Credit Scholarship

In August 2017, with bipartisan support, the House and Senate passed a comprehensive education funding bill that was signed into law by the governor. The law includes a provision for tax credit scholarships, which provide strong incentives for donors to support non-public school scholarships for low-income students in the state. Illinois students from low-income families may use these new scholarships to attend a non-public school of their choice.This legislation represents a major step forward that will help create more equity in school funding throughout Illinois, and for the first time provide real school choice for students and their families.

Please review these Frequently Asked Questions that provide an overview of the scholarships, including important information for donors and scholarship-eligible families. ​

Immunizations, also known as vaccines are one of our greatest defenses against many serious illnesses.

State law also mandates immunizations for adults in specific fields of work (healthcare).
