The Elks Organization has been working with
physically challenged children since 1928 and this is one of the 15
clinic locations throughout Illinois. The clinic is an ideal time to
have a child reviewed for bone and joint development. If your child
has feet pointing out or in who complains of back, knew, leg, ankle
pain or has a back curvature can be seen at this clinic. There is no
charge for any diagnostic services at this clinic. The Elks will
provide financial assistance to the best of their ability for
children needing further treatment or specialty equipment when the
family lacks sufficient resources to do so. In the past, the Elks
have purchased therapy service, corrective shoes, braces,
wheelchairs and augmentative communication devices to help children
overcome a variety of physical challenges.
