The Oglala Lakota Children’s Justice Center (OLCJC) [formerly OLCASA] is a private 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization supporting and promoting tribal court-appointed volunteer advocacy for abused and neglected children in the justice system and beyond.
OLCJC supports hundreds of children in crisis each year by recruiting and training volunteers to serve as OLCJC advocates. The advocates visit the children in foster homes and residential facilities, interview parents, caseworkers and medical professionals, and make recommendations to the court regarding the welfare of the children.
OLCJC is severely underfunded and every item we donate to them will allow them focus on saving the children. Please take a look at the list of books below and let me know if you can donate one for their reference shelf.
