Mission Statement

The mission of the Cameron County Children’s Advocacy Center (CCCAC) is to advocate for and serve child victims of abuse through prevention, intervention, and treatment. The Center’s staff is dedicated to dissemination of prevention information as well as other educational information. The Center provides a child friendly, nurturing environment that facilitates a coordinated and efficient multi-disciplinary intervention process and represents a commitment to provide accessibility to high quality legal, psychological, social, and medical services to the abused child (ren) and their supportive family members.

Description

Monica’s House and Maggie’s House specialize in conducting videotaped forensic interviews of children between the ages of 2 to 17 who have been physically or sexually abused, or have witnessed violent crime. These non-leading, non-suggestive interviews are conducted in a child friendly environment. The CCCAC offers free therapy services for these children and their non-offending family members. Our community educator speaks at community events and educates children in our school to speak out if they are victims or witnesses of abuse. We also have Maggie’s and Monica’s Closet to assist our clients when children have needs such as clothing items, school supplies, and food items.
