Coordinating & advocating services for abused children in Jackson County

Every Child Deserves a Happy Heart
Adults Working and Advocating for Kids' Empowerment is a nonprofit organization focused on advocating for victims of child abuse. AWAKE coordinates services for victims of child abuse in Jackson County. AWAKE provides a child friendly environment where the child and their families receive services and support. Our motivated, caring staff work vigorously on educating the community to recognize signs of child abuse while also helping them understand the importance of reporting abuse.
As of January, 2022, AWAKE officially owns the deed to the building we are located in- thanks to the generous donation of this building to us by Phil Haire. We would like to extend an invitation to all community members to come out to AWAKE on April 7th at 3:30pm for a reception to celebrate Phil's unmatched generosity. We are so grateful for his continuous commitment to the mission of AWAKE in serving the children of Jackson County.
