According to UCAN, their mission is to serve, protect, and advocate for children affected by sexual abuse and serious physical abuse and to educate our communities. They are a nonprofit organization representing Calhoun, Greene, Jersey, Macoupin and Montgomery Counties. They help children tell their stories in a child friendly environment and from there, they help them see a medical doctor and counseling. Additionally, they help families receive or find services that will help them proceed further. They have been assisting the community since 2017.
