Cooperative Agreement
Overview
Grant Description
National Children's Alliance (NCA) is the not-for-profit membership organization that represents and supports the nation's children's advocacy centers (CACs).
A CAC is a child-friendly facility where law enforcement, child protection, prosecution, mental health, medical, and victim advocacy professionals work together to investigate abuse, help children heal from abuse, and hold offenders accountable.
NCA was first federally funded in 1993 to develop and sustain a national membership organization for CACs, multi-disciplinary teams, and related professionals.
NCA also develops the standards for accreditation for CACs and state chapters (a formal association of local CACs within a state) and serves as the national accrediting body.
NCA has administered more than $200 million in federal funds for this purpose.
The populations to be served through this program are child victims of all forms of abuse and maltreatment and their families.
Last year, our national network of over 950 CACs served over 381,164 child victims of abuse and provided abuse prevention training to over 1.5 million children and adults.
National Children's Alliance will continue to strengthen CAC services for all types of child maltreatment utilizing this funding for the OJJDP 2024 Children's Advocacy Centers Membership & Accreditation Program supplemental grant.
