The leadership team of Lutheran Child and Family Services of Illinois have finalized an agreement to bring 360 Youth Services under its organizational umbrella.
Lutheran Child and Family Services of Illinois (LCFS), a community-based social service organization, is helping celebrate this year’s Social Work Month in March. This year’s theme is “The Time is Right for Social Work,” which underscores the contributions social workers have made to this nation for more than a century and how the services they provide are needed more than ever as our nation addresses economic inequality, systemic racism, the need for improved health and mental health care, Covid-19 and other issues.
