Every child deserves to feel safe, heard, and supported.

The QC Illinois Rotary is proud to support the Rock Island County Children's Advocacy Center with the 5th Partner's in Wine Event.

The Rock Island County Children's Advocacy Center (RICCAC) is the only agency in Rock Island County that brings all critical services together in one child-friendly location. Our mission is to reduce the trauma experienced by child victims of sexual abuse, physical abuse, neglect, exposure to violence, and other forms of maltreatment through a coordinated, multidisciplinary team approach.

Working alongside law enforcement, child protection investigators, prosecutors, medical providers, therapists, and victim advocates, RICCAC ensures that children and their non-offending caregivers receive compassionate, developmentally appropriate, and trauma-informed services in a safe, supportive environment. By coordinating these services under one roof, we help minimize the number of times a child must recount their experience while connecting families to the resources they need to begin healing.

What Families Are Saying

"What an amazing experience during such a stressful time. Everything was explained to us clearly, and we always knew what to expect. Everyone was knowledgeable, informative, and made sure we understood the resources available to us. We left feeling much more prepared for the road ahead because of the support we received. Thank you for all you do!" Parent of a Child Served by RICCAC
