A proposed Chicago ordinance would provide death benefits to spouses of first responders who die by suicide.
Alderman Matt O'Shea from the 19th Ward and Alexa James with NAMI Chicago, the National Alliance on Mental Illness, joined ABC7 Wednesday.
The ordinance would provide surviving spouses one year of salary, as well as a one-time financial benefit that ranges from $20,000 - $40,000 depending on the size of the family. This matches the benefit to spouses of first responders who die in the line of duty.If you or someone you know needs help, contact the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-TALK or text"TALK" to 741-741.
