             THE CHILDREN'S HOME AND AID SOCIETY IN CHICAGO

 Mr. SIMON. Mr. President, the Children's Home and Aid Society 
of Illinois is a nonprofit, nonsectarian child and family service 
agency that provided care and service to nearly 10,000 children and 
families last year.
  The society's innovative program allows a child or youth to remain 
under the care of the same agency, providing a number of benefits for 
the young person, their family, and for the agency.
  It affords children the opportunity to maintain contact with an 
influential adult in their lives. It enables families to develop a 
sense of connectedness with the agency. And it empowers the agency to 
enhance communication between staff members, as well as maintain 
contact with the children that have become important to them.
  Mr. President, I rise today to recognize the Children's Home and Aid 
Society in Chicago. To best meet the changing needs of the children and 
families in their care, the society provides a truly complete continuum 
of care.
