About Mimi's House Family Advocacy Center

Mimi's House Family Advocacy Center provides social, emotional, and tangible resources to those impacted by the Child Welfare system including foster families, intact families, recently unified families, former and current Youth in Care, and case managers. Mimi’s House mission is to make the Child Welfare system of Illinois less traumatic and more cohesive. We envision a system where children and families have access to the services and resources they need in order to safely and appropriately accomplish permanency in a timely manner. Mimi’s House acknowledges that permanency encompasses reunification, independence, guardianship and adoption. Mimi’s House is dedicated to mitigating the effects of trauma on children in care by preventing systemic trauma, addressing the families’ trauma histories, and providing necessary and appropriate training for caregivers and staff.
