Therapeutic Services
When an outcry of abuse is confirmed, the Center for Child Protection offers individual and family therapy to children and their families so that they may process their experiences and begin healing from the abuse they have endured. Treatment is individualized to meet emotional, psychological, and developmental needs. Experiential therapy services are also offered through pet-assisted therapy and ropes course initiatives and activities. Services are offered in English and Spanish to children, siblings and to non-offending caregivers at no charge.
Intensive Case Management
Intensive case management supports at-risk families one-on-one for a longer period of time to prevent child abuse or neglect. The Center's clinical staff makes home visits to assess a child's developmental needs and to provide support.
Family Advocate Program
The Family Advocate Program's primary focus is to provide protective caregivers with immediate crisis intervention, ongoing case management, therapy and follow-up so caregivers have the support they need to take care of their child, their family, and themselves.
Emergency Funds
The Center offers emergency funds for children and families who are involved in the investigation process. These funds may provide car seats and beds for children placed in a relative’s care, deadbolt door locks to keep children safe from perpetrators and bus passes to help children and families reach the Center for therapy appointments. Referrals must be made through an agency partner.
Groups and Classes
The Center offers group therapy and parenting classes as additional support to families in the child abuse system.
