Where Children are Heard and Hope Begins

Our Philosophy

Safety, Advocacy, and Justice

Our trauma-informed approach

We believe that children have the right to live safely, free from abuse. We employ a multidisciplinary team that provides trauma informed care to children who are victims of crime, abuse, or exploitation. The services we provide are based on the National Children’s Alliance model for creative and dynamic program development. Our primary goals are to ensure that children are not further victimized by the intervention systems designed to protect them and to hold perpetrators of abuse and neglect of children accountable.
