About us
The mission of the Georgia Center for Child Advocacy is to champion the needs of sexually and severely physically abused children through prevention, intervention, therapy, and collaboration. The Georgia Center for Child Advocacy was established as a private, non-profit agency in 1987. These services are provided at no cost to children who reside in or were abused in DeKalb or Fulton County. The Georgia Center for Child Advocacy’s role throughout the criminal investigation is to focus on the child’s needs, rather than focusing on the crime itself.

The countdown is on to protect children from the impact of Victims of Crime Act (VOCA) cuts. These cuts will have an effect on victim services across the nation, including Children's Advocacy Centers (CACs) at risk of cutting back resources or shutting their doors. Learn more and share this post with your networks, and tell Congress to pass the Crime Victims Fund Stabilization Act (CVFSA) to protect CACs and provide access for victims to get the support they need: https://lnkd.in/eqJYHJG

Ever wondered how strategic planning could benefit your team? Here's how we tackled it with the Georgia Center For Child Advocacy: Full Day Staff Retreat + ½ Day Board Retreat 1. Gathered Input from the entire staff with small group discussions 2. Leadership team consolidated input and did the hard work to set strategic goals 3. Presented to the board for input, buy-in, and ownership This process allowed for full engagement, team buy-in, and greater connections! Strategic planning doesn't have to be intimidating—it can actually be fun and rewarding! The plan we worked on this week will evolve in steps to be completed by Dec 2024. 🗓️. GA Center for Child Advocacy is so fortunate to have an Executive Director like Sheila Ryan, who thinks long-term about how to stay true to its mission with maximum organization and structure.
