Members of the Vermilion County Board have approved a lease agreement that will allow a Children’s Advocacy Center to be located at the County’s Health & Education Building.
Vermilion County State’s Attorney Jacqueline Lacy has been hosting the center at her office since late last year. County Board Chairman Larry Baughn says a joint effort will allow the Center to move to its new home….
{Audio…”We brought it to fruition with State Senator Scott Bennett, and members of the Sheriff’s Department, the Danville P.D., and members of D.C.F.S., and just members of the community at large,’’ said Baughn. “We were one of the few counties in the state that did not have one. We shared resources with Champaign County.’’}
The new Children’s Advocacy Center will be located in the same building which currently houses the Vermilion County Health Department and Regional Office of Education under terms of the 20 year lease.
