The mission of Downers Grove Cares is to advocate strong, Downers Grove public schools and a strong community.

We meet this mission in three ways:

• By endorsing District 58 Board of Education candidates who believe in strong schools and a strong community.

• By encouraging Downers Grove residents to support their schools and their community by voting at the April 7, 2009, elections for new Board members.

• By providing an ongoing platform for discussion about the future of our community.

Downers Grove Cares believes Downers Grove residents will rally around strong schools and a strong community.
