MCCAC and our partners are the front-line responders in Marion County, West Virginia to reports of child sexual abuse and children who have experienced violence. Since opening our doors in 2006, we have served more than 744 children.
The MCCAC coordinates the efforts of child protection staff, law enforcement professionals, family advocates, medical experts and mental health clinicians under one roof. Our staff:
All of our services are aimed at reducing trauma so that children and families may begin the healing process. MCCAC services are free of charge to every client.
Traditionally, children are moved from agency to agency and endure multiple interviews, which creates additional trauma. A child advocacy center (CAC) turns that model upside down by providing one safe, child-friendly facility where child protection, criminal justice, and child treatment professionals work together to investigate abuse, hold offenders accountable, and help children heal.
The MCCAC was able to provide help to 112 children in 2014. Because our model makes children and families feel safer, we’re seeing more child victims of abuse walk through our doors each year.
