We want to recognize our team of Forensic Interviewers for their amazing work towards the children and their families that come through our doors. Each story is a unique one, and they give each child the space to tell theirs. Thank you for being the sounding board that so many children deserve! Curious to know more about our Forensic Interviewers and what that involves? Visit our website at https://lnkd.in/g3FbFVyZ. We also invite you to tour our center to learn more about us and what we do. #ForensicInterviewers #ChildAdvocacy #SupportingChildren #ChildAdvocacyCenter #dentoncounty #wisecounty #jackcounty

Words from our fearless leader and CEO, Kristen Howell. Everything we do is aimed at eliminating the negative outcomes associated with child abuse and giving back the full potential of the child. We’re doing big things this year like scaling our Training Institute, which will allow our partners to receive education and certifications focused on improving their MDT response on crimes against children. #ChildAbusePrevention #MDTResponse #TrainingInstitute #ChildAdvocacy
