HELP. HOPE. HEALING.
The Children’s Advocacy Center of Sullivan County (CAC) provides help, hope, and healing to child victims of sexual and physical abuse.
HELP.
by providing a warm, non-threatening place for children to tell their story to a specially trained Forensic Interviewer.
HOPE.
through intervention by a team of professionals trained to investigate and prosecute allegations of child sexual abuse.
HEALING.
Healthy communities work together. No one body, whether it be political, business, education, health, etc., can make the impact alone. The more we work together as a community to promote healthy and safe lifestyles, the better we become as a whole. Your business can take that step today by become a Partner in Prevention by taking Stewards of Children, free through the CAC, in-person or on Zoom. This 2-hour training will equip ANY business, regardless of clients served, in the protection of children from abuse. Email Amanda today for more information at awhite@cacsctn.org. ☀️

#healthycommunities Parents, teachers, and school staff! YOU can be an advocate! Prevention education programs are offered to all schools through the CAC completely free of charge. Tell your school that you want prevention education for your kids today!
The CAC offers Monique Burr Foundation Child Safety Matters and Teen Safety Matters. These programs cover safety, the four types of abuse, bullying, cyberbullying, digital safety, and digital citizenship. Teens also receive education about relationship abuse, sexual assault, and trafficking. The MBF programs are proven to enhance your child’s knowledge of safety from these abuses long-term. Abuse is rampant-it’s time we equip all of our children with the knowledge they need to remain safe.
How can we make our communities better? It all starts at home by finding small ways to practice health habits with your kids. 🏡
Protect their physical health by serving water to drink, and having fruits and veggies accessible at meals and snack times while getting plenty of exercise as a family by taking walks outside or playing games that get you up and moving!
Talk to your kids openly about body safety using tools from www.mbfpreventioneducation.org or tips from this very page. A healthier and stronger community starts with you!
🟣If you feel your home is not safe due to domestic violence, reach out to the Branch House Family Center at 423-574-7233.
