Hamilton Elks #93 Awards 2 Metals of Public Service
The Hamilton Elks Lodge #93 on August 12th, 2025 @ their board meeting presented two Metal of Public Service with great honor.
1st Metal presentation was to Nancy Lisec, Manager of the Children Service in Butler County. Nancy and her department have participated in the following services for our Butler County Residents. Domestic Violence Coalition Casa/Parachute Advisory Council Butler County Children & Family First Council Foster Parent Advisory Group. Butler County START program is being celebrated as the 2nd Ohio County to achieve certification. The Team is implementing evidence-based models to fidelity and achieving positive outcomes for families affected by co-occurring child maltreatment and parental substance use disorders. There work is year-round and done with expert dedication.
2nd Metal was presented to Kevin Kurpieski, Manager of the Adult Protective Services at Job & Family Services. The Adult Protective Services is like Child Protective Services, but the focus is on the age of 60 and older residents. The clients they service are at risk of abuse, physical, emotional, and sexual. Neglect of our seniors, both financial exploitation and self-neglect, are issues. The Adult Protective Services also an advocate for the Veterans to help them navigate the systems like, VA homeless outreach, medical care at the V.A. Medical Center in Cincinnati. In addition, to fiduciary support if the veteran is having difficulty managing their finances. Many of the senior clients make less than $1,000 a month, that is why Impact Grant the Hamilton Elk Lodge received this year has helped our most vulnerable older adults in our Butler County area. The Impact Grant has made a significant impact on many of our older seniors in our Butler County Community for the last two years. Kevin Kurpieski has played an important role in the last two year by making all the deliveries to all the seniors involved in getting aid of our food boxes.
Hamilton Elks Lodge #93 is proud to be in a partnership with of these two departments at Job & Family Services in Butler County.
