Childrens Advocacy Center of the Bluegrass Inc

Since 1994, the Children’s Advocacy Center of the Bluegrass has worked to reduce the trauma experienced by child victims of sexual abuse and bring hope and healing to families throughout Central Kentucky. 

The organization coordinates the investigation, prosecution and treatment of child sexual abuse cases under one roof to better serve children and their families. While children once had to navigate a difficult and confusing system of multiple, repetitive interviews and exams, the system is now centralized and streamlined for the child. The Children's Advocacy Center of the Bluegrass is modeled on the simple but powerful concept of coordination between community agencies and professionals involved in the intervention system.

Each year, nearly 600 children from 17 Central Kentucky counties come to the Center for forensic interviews, medical examinations, counseling and support. All services are provided in a nurturing, friendly and safe environment at no cost to a child's family.

The Children's Advocacy Center is a beacon of light for children and families in crisis, ensuring that every child in need has access to specialized, no cost medical and mental health care. As the only agency of its kind in Central Kentucky, we listen to those with the smallest voice and champion the rights, well-being, and healing of innocent victims who have experienced unfathomable trauma. Since 1994, thousands of courageous children have discovered a safe place to share their story and learn to trust again.
