Palos Park Il. (Google is your friend.) Used to be the Bridgeview branch office, it's office code A58. I worked at A58 at a prior location 40 years ago :) when it was above a bank.

The office is in Palos Hills Il. It is a very busy Level II office serving the southwest Chicago suburbs. In Chicago SSA it is known as Southwest Suburban.

Illinois has gutted its social services networks, destroyed the support systems and the "safety net" has more holes in it than the current nonfunctioning governor. 2 years without a budget, then shorting the social services leaves people desperate and angry.
