Young Professionals Group

Help. Hope. Healing.

Be a part of the reimagined group for young professionals (ages 22-35) that supports CAC's work.

This group is a good fit for you if:

You share CAC’s vision of creating a community where every child can thrive in safety and well-being.
You have the time and energy to dedicate to meetings and events.
You want to help host events and fundraisers to support CAC’s work in your community with young abuse survivors.
You live or work in or near one of the 38 north and northwest suburbs CAC serves.
You want to gain nonprofit board and volunteering experience to bolster your skills and enhance your resume.

As of Fall 2025, the Emerging Leaders Board is relaunching with a leader and core team of individuals dedicated to building a group that is right for CAC and the group’s members. We’re defining roles, expectations and goals to ensure every member knows how they can contribute and grow, and YOU can be a part of it!

If you are interested in being a part of this group, please contact CAC’s Develpoment Coordinator Alexis Gilkes at agilkes@cachelps.org for more information.

Children’s Advocacy Center of North and Northwest Cook County (CAC) is relaunching its Emerging Leaders Board. Collaborate, network and develop your leadership skills while supporting a local non-profit that works with young abuse survivors in your community every single day.
