The Staff in Jill's Office

From left to right: Jill Mueller, MSW, LCSW, Clinical Supervisor; Maureen Galassie, Executive Director; Rachel Greeley, MSW, LCSW.

In this photo, the staff is taking a breather after working together to complete the monthly statistical reports to the State of Illinois on progress with clients. No individual data is ever disclosed to anyone, only aggregrate information, such as hours of counseling delivered.



Here they are all doing one last double check of that data going to the State of Illinois. It is very important to have the data correct and in on time since the State provides a good portion of ESNI's funding.

It is in our clients' best interests to comply with the state since many who need ESNI's assistance cannot afford to pay the going rate for counseling. ESNI asks clients to pay on a sliding scale and no one is every turned away due to inability to pay.
