Responding to child sexual abuse is a complex process requiring the input and effort of a wide variety of professionals. Children’s Advocacy Centers (CAC) are places where community professionals gather together to work toward the best outcome possible to insure the child’s safety and well-being. Children’s Advocacy Centers in our Commonwealth provide a safe, child-friendly environment where the child and non-offending caregivers can find a full array of services including forensic interviewing, advocacy, mental health and medical services provided in a multidisciplinary team approach.
The Kentucky Association of Children’s Advocacy Centers, Inc. was established to promote, assist and support the development, growth and continuation of Children’s Advocacy Centers in the Commonwealth of Kentucky. This coalition of fifteen designated regional centers serves a network of service providers who share expertise and resources that work to enhance the lives of children in all areas of Kentucky.
