🦒 Now THAT’S a diaper donation!

A huge thank you to St. Matthew's Episcopal Church in Madison for answering the call for larger-sized diapers — a common need that isn’t always commonly donated. 💙

Your generosity helps ensure children and families have the essentials they need when they need them most.

St. Matthew’s, you’ve reached giraffe height! 🦒🧷

Two upcoming training opportunities this fall!

Join the National Children’s Advocacy Center for two virtual trainings focused on thoughtful, trauma-informed forensic interviewing practice:

📅 October 6 | Children Who Have Witnessed Violence
Children who witness violence may carry the effects long after the event itself. This training explores how trauma can impact memory, emotions, and recall, while offering guidance for conducting sensitive, trauma-informed interviews and working collaboratively with investigative partners.

📅 November 3 | More Than One Interview: When, Why, and How?
For some children and some cases, one forensic interview may not be enough. This advanced training explores when additional interview sessions may be appropriate, the child- and case-specific factors to consider, and how research can guide decision-making, case planning, and adaptations to the interview process.

Keep building your skills this fall with two timely training opportunities from the NCAC.

Some reunions are just too sweet. 🐾💙

When Paul Sanchez was passing through Huntsville, he made a special stop at NCAC to visit Marvin. Paul and his wife, Robin, were Marvin’s puppy raisers through Canine Companions Canine Companions, caring for him from 8 months old until he headed off for professional training.

Needless to say, Marvin was VERY excited to see his old friend! 🥹🐶

Paul and Robin played an important role in helping Marvin become the incredible facility dog he is today. During his visit, we were able to give Paul a tour of campus and show him firsthand the important work Marvin does to bring comfort, connection, and hope to children who have experienced trauma.

Swipe to see their reunion! 💙🐾

Thank you, Paul and Robin, for helping Marvin find his way to NCAC and for giving him such a wonderful start. 🐶❤️

💙 Stronger families. Safer children. Healthier communities. 💙

The National Children’s Advocacy Center is grateful to the Children’s Trust Fund of Alabama Alabama Department of Child Abuse & Neglect Prevention for their recent grant awards supporting critical child abuse prevention initiatives across our community.

This funding helps strengthen and expand programs including:

✨ Partnership in Parenting
🌱 Healthy Families
🏫 Handle With Care
🛡️ Darkness to Light’s Stewards of Children® training

Each of these initiatives plays an important role in preventing child abuse, strengthening families, equipping adults to recognize and respond to concerns, and creating safer environments where children can thrive.

We are grateful for the Children’s Trust Fund of Alabama’s continued investment in prevention and for their partnership in helping us champion and strengthen the global response to child abuse.

Thank you for helping us build a safer future for Alabama’s children. 💙

Happy to one very special member of the NCAC team. 🐾

Marvin may bring plenty of smiles wherever he goes, but the work he does is incredibly important.

As our facility dog, Marvin is specially trained to provide comfort and support to children and families during some of their hardest moments. From forensic interviews and therapy sessions to time spent in court. His calm presence, gentle companionship and ability to simply be there can make an unfamiliar or overwhelming experience feel a little less scary.

Today, we’re especially thankful for Marvin, his wonderful handlers, Kennedy and Jana, and the many people at Canine Companions who helped prepare him for this important work. We feel pretty lucky to have four paws on our team. 💙

Happy National Dog Day, Marvin!

Today, the NCAC joins so many in mourning the loss of Dolly Parton—a remarkable champion for children.

Through the Dollywood Foundation and Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library, she turned her belief in the power of children and education into action, putting millions of books into the hands of young children around the world. In Alabama, her Imagination Library provides free books to children ages 0–5 in every county including right here in Madison County.

Her commitment to children went far beyond literacy. Dolly invested in education, supported families in need, responded to communities after disasters, and used her platform to give children more opportunities to dream, learn and thrive.

We’re grateful for a legacy that reminds us what is possible when we put children first. 💗
