All families face challenges that make caring for their children difficult at times. We help parents and caregivers to recognize their strengths, normalize their challenges, and learn new skills that promote the safety and well-being of everyone.
OUR PROGRAMS
We work with parents and caregivers who have been referred by Illinois Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS) due to a report of abuse or neglect, linking them to basic resources, education, counseling, healthcare, emergency assistance, and transportation. We are committed to keeping families together whenever it is safe to do so, building relationships based on trust, empathy, responsiveness, and respect.
We offer this program in the following areas:
Winnebago, Boone, Stephenson, Davies, DeKalb, Washington, Bond, Madison, St. Clair, Randolph, Clinton, Monroe, Iroquois, Champaign, Douglas, Ford, Will, Grundy, Kendall, Kane and Cook
