The mission of The CAC is to provide a professional, compassionate and coordinated approach to the treatment of sexually abused children and their families and to serve as an advocate for all children in our community.
The goal of The CAC is to provide all of the services children and families need in one place. Within our building, we provide forensic interviewing, therapy and psychological services, and medical services free of charge to our clients. Our hope is that our process will provide children and families the tools necessary to help them on their journey to heal from abuse.
The Center also believes prevention and awareness training is key in the fight against child sexual abuse and provides trainings that focus on recognizing the signs and symptoms of abuse, reducing risk to children and effective communication for parents.
Simply put, the Center exists to protect children, heal families, and prevent abuse.
