What is CORD?
CORD is a listing of various diverse area agencies and a detailed explanation of the programs they provide. CORD is one of six initiatives identified in 1998 during a seven county community health needs assessment process - the development phase of the Sarah Bush Lincoln Womens and Children's Center. The five other projects include: Free Dental Clinic; Medication Assistance Program; Adult Day Care; Mobile Preventive Health Screens and Prenatal and Postnatal Education.

Mission Statement
Those involved in developing, supporting and using CORD are dedicated to providing a comprehensive, up-to-date, accessible guide to human services which improves the connection between community members and their needs with appropriate resources in Clark, Coles, Cumberland, Douglas, Edgar, Jasper, Moultrie and Shelby counties.

How is CORD funded?
A grant from the Illinois State Library (ISL) and donations from Consolidated Communications and Sarah Bush Lincoln Women and Children First are providing the financial support to initiate and sustain CORD.
