All of the governor’s COVID-19-related executive orders’ declared since April 8 have been voided, as ruled by an Illinois judge.

Evictions have been halted by executive order in Illinois. Contact your landlord to try and make arrangements for delaying rent payments if you are unable to pay. Housing authorities in Oak Park may also be able to direct you to resources to help with your rent.
