Southern VA Child Advocacy Center/CASA

At the Southern Virginia Child Advocacy Center (SVCAC), we are dedicated to promoting the well-being of children through prevention, education, treatment, and advocacy. Together, we can ensure every child feels safe, supported, and empowered to heal.

Every year, millions of children in the United States experience abuse, neglect, or abandonment. These heartbreaking realities often lead to a courtroom, where a judge decides their future. But the journey to justice and healing begins with places like ours—a child-friendly facility where children can find safety, share their stories, receive services, and start to heal.

What We Do at the Southern Virginia Child Advocacy Center:

• Provide a Safe Space: Our center is designed to make children feel comfortable and secure during what is often the most challenging time in their lives.
• Streamline Support: We coordinate immediate follow-up on child abuse reports, reducing the need for repeated interviews and ensuring swift medical and mental health referrals.
• Ensure Justice: Our efforts lead to better investigations and increased successful prosecutions. We also provide a community-based, volunteer driven program to assist with judicial advocacy for children involved in the court system.
• Support Families: Beyond helping child victims, we offer ongoing support for their non-offending family members to create a stable environment for recovery.
