Where Children Are Heard and Hope Begins
Northern Nevada : Child Advocacy Center
Our Approach
SAFETY, JUSTICE, AND HEALING
We support children and families in healing from trauma and pursuing justice. Our center offers a safe, welcoming space where survivors connect with a multidisciplinary team—including advocates, law enforcement, child protection, legal, medical, and mental health professionals. From the moment of a report, we walk alongside each family, promoting safety, accountability, and resilience every single step of the way. Together, we work to restore hope, strengthen families, and ensure every child has the chance to thrive.
