CHILDREN’S SAFEHOUSE

CHILDREN’S SAFEHOUSE

The Children’s Safehouse provides age-appropriate, legally defensible forensic interviews for children 2-18 years of age and developmentally disabled adults who have been the alleged victim of sexual or physical abuse, or who have witnessed a violent crime. Our average client is a 9-year-old girl, sexually abused by someone she knows and trusts.

Family advocates work closely with the alleged victim’s guardian to ensure that they are provided resources and follow-up care, such as medical attention, and therapy. 

FAMILY WELLNESS

FAMILY WELLNESS

Family Wellness refers to a variety of services offered to children and their families to help them navigate the complex system of supports needed on the journey to healing and recovery.

Trauma affects whole family, not just the child. Children need safe, stable and nurturing relationships to heal from trauma and prevent further trauma. We support the healing process for parent and caregiver’s childhood trauma so as to empower them to protect and support the healing process of their children.

PLACEMENT SERVICES

TRAINING INSTITUTE

TRAINING INSTITUTE

Educating law enforcement, educators, municipalities, and human services professionals about the impact of childhood trauma is key to creating a community of first responders, schools, mentors, and families that recognize the signs of trauma, as well as understand that the consequences of trauma can be prevented and healed.
