BREAKING NEWS!

We are thrilled to share RACES has received a Darkness to Light Advocacy Award to protect children through education, awareness, and community engagement.

As one of 22 recipients, this award will allow us to provide proven prevention training to adults throughout East Central Illinois empowering them to protect the children in their lives and prevent child sexual abuse before it occurs.
