ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS

Child victim advocacy and counseling services are available for any child victim of abuse, neglect, dependency or domestic violence.  The Children’s Advocacy Center does not intervene in family crisis situations concerning children nor does it provide advocates to act on behalf of families who are seeking custody.  Please contact us for Crisis Counseling and Support if we may be of assistance.

The Children’s Advocacy Center houses the CASA Program.   CASA’s are special advocates appointed by the District and Family Court for children in the court system.  CASA volunteers cannot act as independent agents for families.
