DuPage Crisis Recovery Center opens; PGA Tour to present check Sept. 16

DuPage County officials said the county’s Crisis Recovery Center (CRC), which opened Sept. 2, provides a community resource for residents experiencing mental‑health crises and substance use challenges and urged use of 988 and mobile crisis teams as first steps.

County leadership announced that the PGA Tour will present a charitable check to DuPage Health Matters and the county’s CRC at noon on Tuesday, Sept. 16, as part of charitable giving tied to the 2026 President’s Cup at Medinah Country Club. County leaders described the CRC as a regional model for crisis care and encouraged board members and the public to attend the presentation.

At the Sept. 9 county board meeting, officials reminded residents that 988 is the suicide and crisis hotline available 24/7, that mobile crisis teams will respond in the community, and that the CRC serves as a place for residents to receive immediate support for mental health or addiction concerns. County staff noted the center’s opening during both Suicide Prevention Month and National Recovery Month and invited board members and the public to the PGA Tour check presentation.

No board action was required at the meeting; the item was presented as information. The transcript records the announcement and the invitation to the Sept. 16 presentation but does not include further detail about the amount of the donation or the programmatic terms; the announcement said the PGA Tour would present a “large check.”
