Programs

The Children’s Advocacy Center (CAC) – is a program that addresses the safety and protection of children who make disclosures of physical and sexual abuse. While at the CAC, children and their non-offending caregivers receive support, crisis intervention, and referrals for ongoing services.

The CAC is a safe, neutral location where investigators from law enforcement agencies and the Department of Children, Youth, and Families (DCYF) conduct and observe forensic interviews with children who are alleged victims of crime. The CAC uses a multi-disciplinary approach in which agency professionals from various disciplines work together as a team to coordinate services during the abuse investigation. The goals of this team are to reduce the number of times a child needs to talk to different agency professionals and to address family concerns in a sensitive and timely manner.

The Parent‐Child Assistance Program (PCAP)  – is an award-winning, evidence‐informed home visitation case‐management model for pregnant and parenting women with substance use disorders. This program is administered in Grays Harbor and Pacific Counties with fidelity to the University of Washington. Families enrolled in this program will receive case management services for three years. PCAP goals are to help build healthy families and prevent future births of children exposed prenatally to alcohol and drugs.

Family Time Visitation Program (FT) – this program facilitates supervised visitation between biological parents and their children, as well as siblings that may have been separated. Facilitators provide a safe environment, court-appropriate documentation, and transportation for children to and from visitations. Both DCYF-referred and privately paid services are accommodated.

Parent Education (PE) – Currently unavailable.
