BRADLEY — A new program will work to distribute clothes, supplies and personal items to foster children in Kankakee County. The initiative, Caring for Kids, was launched this month by Child Network, a longtime local non-profit that works with abused children. Child Network already interviews children in abuse cases and provides volunteer Court Appointed Special Advocates to advocate for children in Kankakee County courts. The new program, Child Network Executive Director Kristin Jackson says, “perfectly aligns” with the mission of the agency. “These are exactly the type of children we serve,” she said. The idea behind the program comes from SueAnn O’Connor, who served on the board of Child Network for a decade and has also served as the board president.
