CAC, Hope Circle’s mission is to care for the victim’s needs first. Our organization was founded in 2004 under the belief that all
children and families deserve quality care and support while experiencing a crisis. We work to bridge the gap between the child victim
and the necessary assistance each child and their family needs in order to ensure a life-long recovery. Our program has served hundreds
of children in 2009, and was recently awarded accreditation as a recognized member of the National Children’s Alliance.

Our program focuses on the child’s safety while coming forward to begin the healing process. We employ techniques that are sensitive to
each child’s needs, including those with learning and hearing disabilities. Each member of our staff is trained to appropriately handle
delicate matters such as child abuse.
