Please print and display the attachments in your stores.

The Illinois Department of Public Health is currently sponsoring community-based COVID-19 testing sites throughout Illinois. Testing is provided at no cost to individuals, no appointment or medical referral is needed, and insurance is not required. Testing is available for all ages; however, parents or guardians must be present and able to provide consent for individuals under the age of 18.

As we try to publicize this service, particularly in communities that are hard to reach and frequently disadvantaged, we are asking for your help through the Currency Exchange Association and its 300+ member businesses.

Attached you will find the following tools with which to publicize the test sites:

A location flyer (English and Spanish versions) that can be printed and posted on lobby bulletin boards, near cashier areas, and in employee breakrooms;
Sample social media posts that can be shared with and reposted from your Facebook, Twitter and Instagram pages or those of individual business members; and
A one-page FAQ, should you have any questions about the testing services.
