Welcome to the Child Advocacy Center of Rockingham County. Our mission is to protect children. We do this by providing a safe environment for the evaluation of child abuse and exploitation, coordinating services to victims and families and preventing future abuse through community education. The Child Advocacy Center is a joint effort between law enforcement, the Rockingham County Attorney's office, Division of Children, Youth and Families (DCYF) and local medical and mental health professionals.
Our goals are:
- To create a neutral place where interviews and services for abused children is provided
- To prevent trauma to a child caused by multiple contacts with various community professionals
- To provide the family with needed services that help them resolve their problems
- To communicate and coordinate our efforts with other community agencies
