Knowing the struggles that families being served by Allen County Children Services can face, the Allen County Probate and Juvenile Court staff held a special drive. As part of Child Abuse Prevention Month, the court staff collected diapers, wipes, and formula that they brought to Allen County Children Services. Allen County Children Services then gives them to families they see who are struggling to buy the essentials for their children.
