March is the Lion, Lamb and Luck!

In the old days people would wager on whether March would come in like a lion or a lamb and bet on who would be the recipient of the leprechaun’s luck. In today’s world, facts outweigh superstition.

At the Advocacy Network for Children, we know the children and families in our eleven county service area face the trials of food, housing, mental health, and personal safety insecurity everyday. They rely on the good will of others and community services to provide them with resources to improve their fortune.

Our agency is so lucky to have new employees, Amber Sarnes and Chelsea Ewing. Amber is the CASA Coordinator for our newly expanded CASA programs in Mason and Menard Counties and Chelsea is the new CASA Coordinator for our Morgan County CASA program based in Jacksonville. Please join us in welcoming them! We know that with kindness, support and trauma informed services, we can continue to help make the luck happen for others and provide inroads to success.

Love Letters to the Community February 2025!

Our newsletters might not be what you call proper love letters. But we do love to tell you how you, and our partner agencies effect positive change in the lives and healing outcomes.

Our nine county CAC region and ten county CASA service area help create a net of safety, security, care and welfare for children and families affected by abuse.

That’s a whole lot of places where families need the love and support from volunteers! Read our newsletters for more ways you can help!
