One of the most important parts of Child Abuse Awareness Month is education! Our staff has been visiting various schools in our service area during the month of April to educate staff & personnel about AOCAC, our services, and how to recognize abuse.

There is still time to have one of our speakers come to your school to educate staff before the end of the school year! Give us a call on our main line at 708-233-1176 to schedule a presentation for your school!

What do I do if I suspect child abuse is going on?
The DCFS Hotline 1-800-252-2873 operates 24/7 as well as their online reporting system. When calling the DCFS Hotline, provide as much information about the child that you can. If not much information is known, that's okay! It is always important to call.
For non-lifethreatening or non-emergency incidents, it is okay to use the online reporting system which can be accessed here :

If you believe a child is in true, immediate danger it is best to call 911. Always remember, it is not your job to investigate! Provide the hotline or online reporting system with as much information as you can, and they will take the investigation from there.
