Family Support & Resources

Preserving Families

At One Family Illinois, we are dedicated to keeping siblings together in foster care and providing essential support to families throughout our communities. Through helpful resources, training, and transparent communication, we aim to meet families where they are—whether they need guidance, support, or connection.

If you need help with something you don’t see on this page, please reach out directly. We’re here to help.

If you believe a child is at risk of abuse or neglect, call the DCFS 24/7 Child Abuse Hotline at 1-800-25-ABUSE (1-800-252-2873). If there’s immediate danger, call 911.

Parent Handbook (English & Spanish)

Created by our Racial Justice Committee, the Parent Handbook helps guide families with children placed in DCFS custody and cared for by One Family Illinois. It explains the reunification process, the importance of ongoing communication, and how families can stay engaged.
