Will County Children's Advocacy Center
Police from Romeoville and other agencies in Will County work closely with the Will County Children's Advocacy Center staff. The WCCAC provides hope, healing, and justice for children (and non-offending family members) who have endured physical and sexual abuse, sexual exploitation, child pornography, neglect, and exposure to violence. Our Lodge is thankful for their service, and returned the support by making a $1,000. donation.
For more information about the WCCAC, or to make a donation of your own, please visit their website.
