History
In 1981, a group with a heart for protecting women and nurturing life came together with a common dream-to save lives and rescue moms by empowering women who experience an unplanned pregnancy to choose life. By providing women in crisis with emotional and spiritual support and practical help, this group believed they could make a lasting difference in the lives of women and their families. This is how Caring Network Illinois was born. First came a hotline answered in a mechanic's garage, soon after a storefront office in Villa Park.
In the past 40 years, other centers and critical services have been added until today, our pregnancy counselors and medical team serve thousands of women and men each year in DuPage County and beyond. Although much has changed in the decades that Caring Network has been ministering to families in our community, our mission has remained steadfastly the same. Caring Network Illinois is still committed to serving Christ by loving women in need unconditionally and saving the lives of their children. God is our leader and provider. We invite you to join with us as we advance God's kingdom by reaching and impacting more lives in need of hope and protection.
