Our Philosophy
The Board of Directors, staff and
volunteers of the Children’s Advocacy Center believe that
child sexual abuse is a community problem. Past
experience has taught us that no single agency can
possibly meet all the needs of sexually victimized
children and their families. Experience has also taught
us that taking child victims from agency to agency, over
and over for multiple interviews, traumatizes the children
and, in fact, re-victimizes them. We are committed to
providing a coordinated, multi-disciplinary team approach
including Child Protective Services, Law Enforcement,
Prosecution, Mental and Medical Health Professionals. It
is our goal to provide programs and support services for
child victims and their families which will enable them to
heal emotionally and physically
