Who We Are 

The Valley Children’s Center is a non-profit agency designed to reduce the trauma and advance the recovery of abused and neglected children. The Center provides a comfortable, private, child-friendly setting where abused and neglected children can be interviewed by a trained Forensic Interviewer in partnership with Law Enforcement and Child Protective Services. These interviews are recorded for use by the Commonwealth’s Attorney to enhance the investigation of abuse allegations.

What We Do

The Center is based on a national Child Advocacy Center model that seeks to prevent trauma to the child caused by multiple, duplicative interviews and holds more offenders accountable through the improved prosecution of child abuse cases due to a multi-disciplinary approach.

The Center also offers the following services:

• Immediate crisis intervention counseling to the victim, non-offending caregivers and siblings.
• A SANE (Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner) program for medical evaluations of victims to be performed locally at Augusta Health.
• Programs to enhance our community’s understanding of child abuse and neglect through public awareness campaigns and educational components in local schools.
