Mission: To provide support and education to children involved in child abuse cases.
Programs: Children who were victimized in child abuse cases were interviewed. Being interviewed only once, each child avoided that trauma of repeated interviews. Also, 24-hour on-site medical examinations were provided. The center provides full-time on and off-site counseling, and in addition, the center coordinates monthly meetings of the child protection team and semi-annual meetings of the child fatality review team. Also, the center trained area law enforcement personnel in identifying and reporting suspected child abuse cases as part of the community outreach program.
