Services
We are a movement made up of the 70 local children's advocacy centers (CACs) serving children throughout Texas, local professionals investigating and prosecuting child abuse, a committed board of directors, dedicated donors, volunteers, staff, and corporate and government partners. The six core priority services of CACTX are guided by our following beliefs:
Membership Services:
We believe access to strong, local CACs will provide young victims with the unique services they need to begin their journey to hope, justice and healing.
Evaluation and Assessment:
We believe ongoing success in the fight against child abuse requires continual evaluation of current efforts and exploration of new, more effective ways to do this work.
Collaboration:
We believe that information sharing and networking is critical to innovation in the child abuse field.
Advocacy:
We believe in the power of a collective voice to successfully effectuate systemic change that will impact the lives of children scarred by violence and abuse.
Community Awareness:
We believe that the eradication of child abuse from our society begins with building informed; empowered communities that stand ready to embrace this issue with courage, making it a top priority.
Funding:
At the heart of our mission is a commitment to support the sustainability of local children's advocacy centers so that they may continue to help young victims rebuild their lives.
