Forensic Interviewing

Counseling

at the CACCC

When children and families get trauma focused therapy, the negative symptoms associated with abuse, like anxiety and depression, decrease. Every year, the CACCC provides over 1000 hours of trauma focused cognitive behavioral therapy to families free of charge.

Family Advocacy

at the CACCC

Non offending caretakers need help navigating the criminal justice system and need referrals to other organizations to get the help they need to focus on their child’s healing. Every year family advocates reach out to families over 1200 times in order to make sure they have everything they need to be supported.

The Multidisciplinary Team

The CACCC exists to aid in the prevention, detection, investigation and treatment of child abuse.

Our interagency partners through expert team members make it possible for us to help Comal County children every day.

Law enforcement officers and child protective service investigators refer cases to the center as soon as they believe that abuse might have occurred. During a forensic interview, they observe. After the interview, they take a copy of the recorded interview into evidence for later use. Assistant district attorneys observe the interviews as well to determine if sufficient evidence exists to go forward in a case.

Crisis advocates and CAC Staff and volunteers work to keep the children and families who come to the center comfortable and follow up with families after they leave the center to provide ongoing support and referrals as needed.
