Child Advocacy Center

The Child Advocacy Center in Gainesville provides a child friendly, safe and supportive environment for abused and neglected children. The Center is a place where professionals -- social workers, counselors, law enforcement officers, state attorneys, victim advocates, medical professionals and others -- work as a team to coordinate investigations and interventions for each child abuse case.  This collaboration expedites each child's time in the legal system and ensures that children are not re-victimized by the system and that they and their families are provided the support and services needed.
