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.
