Child Advocacy Center
What is the Child Advocacy Center
​
The Child Advocacy Center (CAC) is vital in the fight to stop child abuse in Charles County. It is a safe environment where professionals from different disciplines work together as a team to respond to reports of child sexual abuse.
CAC’s Multi-Disciplinary Team (MDT) consists of social workers, local law enforcement investigators, medical and mental health professionals, prosecutors and victim advocates. Children receive forensic on-site interviews, victim advocacy and other supportive services. This child-focused approach minimizes the number of times children must be interviewed and reduces any further trauma the children may experience.
​
Center for Children houses the Charles County Child Advocacy Center and works hard to provide victims of abuse with the needed services throughout their entire investigative process and long after.
