Mental health - chicagocac provided 5,976 hours of therapy to children and parents. Our clinicians provide crisis counseling, talk therapy, art therapy, and psychiatric services for children and families. We specifically target children and families experiencing immediate and severe mental health problems who have difficulty accessing mental health services in their community.

Advocacy - chicagocac provided advocacy and case management services to 1,582 new families. Advocates work on behalf of the children and families who come to the center. They explain and guide parents through the investigation and legal process, assess each family's needs, provide emotional support and counseling, and refer children and caretakers to other needed services in the family's community or at the center.
