Our Mission

The mission of the Child Advocacy Center is to integrate and coordinate services to meet the needs of child victims of sexual and physical abuse and their families at a single, child friendly facility.  Such response is intended to reduce trauma, promote accountability and facilitate healing.

More about us
One out of every ten children will be sexually abused before they reach age 18. More than ninety percent of children know the person who abused them.
