Join the Committee for Children for its first-ever “CARES AWARDS” dinner and honors, celebrating local individuals and organizations that have advanced the cause of protecting Lucas County’s children from abuse and neglect.

Recipients of this year’s “CARES AWARDS” will be recognized for their valuable work in the:
• Prevention of child abuse and neglect
• Prevention of substance abuse and domestic violence
• Battling the opiate epidemic and its impact on Lucas County families and children
• Promoting and supporting foster care and adoption
• Stabilizing and reunifying families

The CARES AWARDS will also celebrate the history of Lucas County Children Services, which has protected Toledo area children for the past 150 years.

Funds raised from this event will underwrite a public information campaign to promote voter re-approval of a 1.85 mill operating levy that is a key source of LCCS operating funds. The levy is one of two county property tax measures that provide more than 55 percent of the funding LCCS needs to fulfill its mandate to investigate and protect children from abuse and neglect.
