Why It Works
Child advocacy centers (CACs) were able to support over 4,800 children across West Virginia in 2022-2023 alone. An amazing 4,596 forensic interviews were conducted statewide! According to a study conducted by the National Children’s Advocacy Center, our commitment to the CAC model saved taxpayers $3 million by allowing us to help victims of abuse and those reporting it find a safe, protective environment that promotes high-quality care and compassion.
