Committed to Protecting the Most Vulnerable

We stand together in support of Wear Blue Day and our commitment to preventing child abuse. Wear Blue Day serves as a reminder that protecting children is a shared responsibility and that every child deserves to feel safe, valued, and supported.

We are proud to be a place where children and families know they are not alone and that help is always within reach.

If you are concerned about a child’s safety, call 1-800-25-ABUSE (800-252-2873) or report it online at childabuse.illinois.gov.
