Our highly trained Forensic Interviewers conduct legally sound and digitally recorded interviews of children, ages 3 – 16, who have made an allegation of abuse or who have been witness to a violent crime.
The Jefferson CAC is proud to partner with Children’s Bureau of New Orleans (CBNO) to offer trauma focused, therapeutic interventions free of charge to all children and families that attend a scheduled forensic interview appointment.
All children seen at the Jefferson CAC will be referred to the Audrey Hepburn Children at Risk Evaluation (CARE) Center for a forensic medical evaluation with a specially trained pediatrician.
The Jefferson CAC provides training for adults who want to learn more about protecting children .
We also offer a child sexual abuse prevention education program, free of charge, for 1st, 2nd and 3rd graders in Jefferson Parish schools.
In a perfect world, all children would grow up in safe and nurturing homes free of abuse. Until then, you can make a difference in the life of a child.
