OAKBROOK TERRACE – In response to an increase in reported crimes throughout DuPage County, State Senator Suzy Glowiak Hilton (D-Western Springs) is partnering with the Hinsdale and Oak Brook police departments to host a community conversation on safety.

“Everyone deserves to feel safe on the roads and at home,” Glowiak Hilton said. “With carjackings and burglaries becoming more prevalent in our community, I believe it’s valuable to give residents an opportunity to get safety tips straight from our local law enforcement officers.”

The crime prevention and safety seminar event will be held on Dec. 9 at the Oak Brook Public Library, located at 600 Oak Brook Rd., starting at 5:30 p.m. Masks are required for participation.

“We all stand to benefit from learning better, more effective ways to keep ourselves and our family members out of harm’s way,” Glowiak Hilton said. “I appreciate this collaboration with the Hinsdale and Oak Brook police departments as well as the Oak Brook Public Library for offering a space, and I look forward to joining the conversation.”

Residents can contact Glowiak Hilton’s office by calling 630-785-3177 or texting 630-998-7059 for additional information.
