Once you have pictures up someone will surely be able to answer you but for right now if you could maybe explain the damage that might help a bit.

If it’s a maple neck it’s likely that the crack goes all the way through or is very deep as opposed to just grain tear out from sanding on materials like mahogany. Without seeing it it’s hard to give an exact remedy but you could try to squeeze some glue into to the crack and then try to clamp the two sides so they squeeze together.

Other than that, you’ll have to build a replacement neck or buy a replacement neck. Being that it’s a strat neck, it shouldn’t cost much.

I'd give the 'Hot stuff' glue a try. You can get various thickness versions - the thinner versions would run right down into the crack and make a good join. Just be careful that you don't glue the trussrod to a fixed setting - I not sure if your crack runs through the trussrod channel. This glue goes everywhere - unfortunately it sometimes goes where you don't want it too.
