Today we welcomed the community to a special ribbon cutting ceremony which celebrated the renovation of our Kids Corner Supervised Playroom, Supervised Activity Center, and Program Room! These updates were made possible thanks to generous grant from the State of Illinois, and we also want to give special thanks to State Senator Meg Loughran Cappel for her advocacy and leadership during this project. Learn more about the impact of these renovated youth and family spaces by visiting our blog: https://lnkd.in/gH3UAUhY
