It is the mission of Guardian Angel Community Services to empower people to improve the quality of their lives.

Guardian Angel Community Services (formerly, Guardian Angel Home), was founded in Joliet, Illinois in 1897 as an orphanage, run by the Sisters of Saint Francis of Mary Immaculate, to care for dependent and neglected children. In 1973, Guardian Angel Community Services became a licensed, child welfare agency and began focusing its efforts on addressing the increasingly complex problems of children and families. In August 2005, the Agency officially changed the name to reflect the wide array of services provided to the community. Guardian Angel Community Services expanded in the mid 1990’s to include an office in Morris, Illinois, which offers counseling, and medical and legal advocacy services to victims of domestic and sexual violence.

The Agency is accredited by the Council on Accreditation and in January of 2012, Guardian Angel Community Services’ accreditation was renewed. The congratulatory letter from the Council noted, “COA’s program of quality improvement is designed to identify providers that have set high performance standards for themselves and have made a commitment to their constituents to deliver the very best quality services. COA is proud to recognize you as one of these outstanding providers, and I wish you the very best in your continuing service to the individuals in your community.”

GACS is a member of the United Way of both Will and Grundy Counties and the Illinois Coalitions Against Sexual Assault and Domestic Violence.
