Our highly trained Forensic Interviewers conduct legally sound and digitally recorded interviews with children aged 3 to 17 when there are allegations or suspicions of abuse, or when the child has witnessed 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 are referred to the JPCO’s Sexual Assault Services Team for a forensic medical evaluation with a specially trained pediatrician.
Child abuse prevention is a shared responsibility and the more we learn, the safer our kids will be. The Jefferson CAC is proud to offer community based prevention trainings for adults and children, in addition to customized professional trainings.
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.
