Children's Advocacy Center Facing Minor Funding Crisis

The communities the Children's Advocacy Center serves between DeWitt, McLean and Livingston Counties have always been very supportive of their organization.

 

Now they might need to be even more supportive if services are going to be maintained locally. Executive Brucker, Judy Brucker indicates it's been over 50 years they have been in the community, but with grant funding starting to dry out in places and fundraising not being as effective, it is time for them to consider other options.

 

 

Brucker says having their office in the community is the best case scenario for kids that come to them that have been abused. She explains their services are available at satellite offices in DeWitt and Livingston Counties, which she feels is very fortunate.

 

 

Brucker indicates the agency has always operated with the deficit but is seeking out ways to find a more efficient and dependable revenue source. She says they are in the early stages of exploring what possibilities there are from a local level.
