Child Advocacy Center

A Child Advocacy Center (CAC) is a specialized facility designed to support and protect children who may have experienced abuse or victimization. It brings together law enforcement, social services, medical professionals, and legal experts to provide a coordinated, child-friendly response. At a CAC, children can undergo interviews and examinations in a safe, supportive environment, minimizing the trauma often associated with reporting abuse. The goal is to ensure that children receive necessary care and support while also gathering evidence for investigations, all while prioritizing the child's well-being and rights throughout the process.
