supporting a powerful mission
There are over 700,000 cases of child abuse in the US every year and over 850 Nationally-Accredited Child Advocacy Centers (CACs) serve the needs of these children and their families.
A Children’s Advocacy Center is a child-friendly facility in which law enforcement, child protection, prosecution, mental health, medical and victim advocacy professionals work together to investigate abuse, help children heal from abuse, and hold offenders accountable.
a forensic interview is a critical first step, and it serves two purposes:
reduce children’s trauma in the retelling of their experience as part of their healing process.
evidence for the judicial system and preventing others from falling victim to the same perpetrator.
technology driven by collective impact
Inspired by Project Harmony in Omaha, NE, in collaboration with the National Children Alliance and an advisory council with expert attorneys, prosecutors, therapists, forensic interviewers, and Child Advocacy Centers across the U.S. working together on using state-of-the-art technology to protect and support children victims of childhood sexual assault and abuse.
Made possible thanks to leading foundations and philanthropists in the U.S. providing catalytic grants for CAC to use the technology during the first year. In year two, their regular budget cycle with grants from the DOJ and other sources will pay for the solution. We are solving a complex technical problem as well as a funding gap.
