With the support of the Vanderburgh County Council, the Vanderburgh County Commissioners were proud to award Ark Crisis Children’s Center with $65,000 in American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) Funds.

To respond to the public health emergency impact with respect to COVID-19 and its negative economic impacts, Vanderburgh County appropriated funds to non-profit organizations whose missions focus on arts, culture, and educational initiatives benefiting the County’s residents.

Ark Crisis Children’s Center keeps children safe and strengthens families in times of stress. Their goal is to protect children from abuse and neglect. Licensed to care for children six weeks to six years old, Ark provides free short-term child care to families in need where no emergency requests are ever denied.
