This series of photographic portraits and interviews with Cook County Jail inmates as well as jail social workers and psychologists provides a glimpse of life with mental illness behind bars.In late 2015, Lili Kobielski began taking portraits of inmates at the Cook County Jail in Chicago. Working in collaboration with Narratively and the Vera Institute of Justice with support from the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation&;s Safety and Justice Challenge, she began documenting the prevalence of mental illness among inmates at Cook County Jail in an effort to humanize the reality of mass incarceration in this country, often of its most vulnerable citizens.
The Cook County Department of Corrections is one of the largest single-site pre-detention facilities in the world, with an average daily population hovering around eight thousand inmates. It is estimated that 35 percent of this population is mentally ill.
According to a May 2015 report by the National Alliance on Mental Illness, Illinois cut $113.7 million in funding for mental health services between 2009 and 2012. As a result, two state-operated inpatient facilities and six City of Chicago mental health clinics have shut down since 2009. Emergency room visits for patients having a psychiatric crisis increased by 19 percent from 2009 to 2012, and a 2013 report by Thresholds found that the increase in ER visits and hospitalizations resulting from the budget cuts cost Illinois $131 million&;almost $18 million more than the original &;savings.&;
In addition, Illinois Governor Bruce Rauner&;s refusal to pass a budget for more than two years has caused more than eighty thousand people in Illinois to lose access to mental health care. Two-thirds of nonprofit mental health care agencies in Illinois have reduced or eliminated programs, and a third of Chicago&;s mental health organizations have had to reduce the number of people they serve.
The Cook County Sheriff's Office estimates that it costs $143 per day to house a general population inmate. But when taking into account the treatment, medication, and security required to incarcerate a mentally ill person, the daily cost doubles or even triples&;yet now more patients than ever are being treated in jail rather than at a mental health facility. Cook County Jail has become one of the largest, if not the largest, mental health care provider in the United States.

Natural remedy for treating keratosis pilaris (KP).
Scent: Unscented, Size: 2 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
The most pleasant surprise about this tallow balm is that it’s a very effective natural remedy for treating keratosis pilaris (KP). It’s intense moisturizing properties help smooth the "chicken skin" bumps and reduce redness. It’s a natural alternative to conventional lotions by nourishing the skin barrier without harsh chemicals. I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw the skin texture on the back of my upper arms after rubbing it in. My skin looks and feels much improved when I use it and hopefully will continue to improve over time with continuall use! If you have not found an all natural product to help smooth and reduce KP bumps give this tallow balm a try!

Batana Oil for Stronger, Fuller Hair
Scent: Bright Coffee, Size: 4.06 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’ve been using this Batana Oil for a few weeks now, and I’m genuinely impressed with the results. From the very first use, my hair felt softer, more nourished, and noticeably healthier. The texture of the oil is rich but not overly heavy, which makes it easy to apply without weighing my hair down.
What I love most is how it helps with dryness and frizz. My ends look less damaged, and my hair has a natural shine that I didn’t have before. I’ve also noticed less breakage when brushing, which is a huge plus. It feels like my hair is getting stronger over time.
Another great thing is that a little goes a long way, so the jar lasts longer than expected. I like to use it as a scalp treatment and also as a leave-in on my ends, and it works perfectly both ways.
If you’re looking for something to improve the overall health, thickness, and appearance of your hair, this Batana Oil is definitely worth trying. It gives that “salon-quality” feel right at home.

Hair Growth Game Changer
Scent: Bright Coffee, Size: 4.06 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Scent: Bright Coffee, Size: 4.06 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Game-Changer for Hair Growth & Thickness
I am seriously impressed with this 100% raw organic Batana oil. I’ve tried so many hair growth products, and this is one of the few that actually delivers real results.
Within just a couple of weeks, I noticed my hair feeling softer, stronger, and way more hydrated. The biggest difference for me has been in thickness—my hair looks fuller, and I’m seeing new growth, especially around my hairline. It also adds a really healthy shine without making my hair feel greasy or weighed down.
I love that it’s all-natural and unprocessed—you can tell it’s the real deal. A little goes a long way, so the jar will last you a while. I use it a few times a week as a scalp treatment and even on my ends to prevent dryness.
If you’re struggling with thinning, breakage, or just want healthier, longer hair, I highly recommend giving this a try. Definitely a staple in my routine now!
