One hundred years ago, Route 66 was born. The famous federal highway was commissioned in 1926 and stretched 2,400 miles to connect Chicago to California. Over the next century, millions of people traveled that ribbon of highway. Route 66 witnessed depression and war and boom times and decline. The experiences it offered were as diverse and complicated as America itself.&nbsp;
This presentation explores the history of Route 66 and the experiences of everyday people who lived, worked, and traveled along the Mother Road during its heyday. Through this presentation you will:&nbsp;
<ul><li>Experience some of the 100 oral histories compiled by the Illinois State Museum providing insights of travelers’ own words of what it was like “back in the day.”</li><li>Learn about discrimination faced by Black travelers on Route 66 and the strategies they employed to ensure safety and dignity while traveling.&nbsp;</li><li>Learn about the differences in road travel in the mid-20th century vs. today.&nbsp;</li></ul>
At the end of the presentation, attendees will be invited to share their road trip memories and/or memories of Route 66.Select the link above to save your place for this special presentation or call Frankfort Library Adult Services at 815-534-6173.

Will County Children's Advocacy Center

The Will County Children's Advocacy Center was founded in 1995 by State's Attorney James Glasgow to partner with multidisciplinary teams (MDTs) comprised of law enforcement, DCFS investigators, medical personnel, prosecutors, and Will County CAC forensic interviewers, family advocates, and trauma therapists in response to reports of severe physical abuse, sexual abuse, commercial exploitation, neglect, and exposure to violence of children, in Will County, IL. Our Will County CAC intake/MDT coordinator, forensic interviewers, family advocates, and trauma therapists provide the following services: * Forensic Interviews: After a child is referred to the Will County CAC by law enforcement or the IL Dept. of Family Services (DCFS), our Intake Coordinator schedules a forensic interview for the child. One of our 4 forensic interviewers listens to the child’s story and asks non-leading, developmentally-appropriate questions as the child talks about the trauma he/she has experienced. Law enforcement, prosecution, DCFS, and mental health professionals observe the interview from a separate room. This reduces trauma for the child and provides a stronger foundation if the case goes to court. * Family Advocacy: Our family advocates are committed to helping each family navigate the complex systems that a family enters when a child makes an outcry of abuse. As each case goes through the investigation, prosecution and healing process, the team is there to help the family understand the process, learn about their rights and successfully access resources that will help their family during crisis. * Trauma-Focused Therapy: Our team of licensed clinical social workers provide short-term, trauma informed therapy to children who have received a forensic interview. Since child abuse affects the whole family, the services are available at no cost to both the child and their non-offending family members. Individual and group therapy is offered in English and Spanish.
