September 2022 News!

Fall is just around the corner, and with fall comes autumn events like leaves changing, bonfires, corn mazes, pumpkin patches and harvest celebrations. No matter what season we are leaving or what season is approaching, the mission of the Advocacy Network for Children remains the same.

Our goal is really quite simple — to protect and uphold the rights of children when wrongs have been committed against them, to help abused or neglected children have safe permanent homes where they can thrive, to act as a powerful voice in these children’s best interests and to educate the public about the plight of abused children.

Here for Good Together with the Community Foundation

The agency received a $7,500.00 grant from the Ralph Oakley Family Fund through the Community Foundation on August 17, 2022. Funds will be used by the agency to host a human trafficking conference this fall in Quincy. The check was presented by Lance Grady, Board Chair, to Jamie Carroll, CAC Coordinator for Adams, County, IL.

We are so glad to have the opportunity to support the ever-changing needs within our community!
