Our Story
The Children’s Advocacy Center of Paris is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization that serves child victims of abuse and their non-offending family members in both Lamar and Red River Counties. We are honored to have been a part of the community since 1999, and in that time we have helped change the lives of over 4,000 child victims by providing forensic interviews, free trauma focused therapy, multidisciplinary case staffings, forensic medical exams, assistance with Crime Victims Compensation, Rainbow Room essentials, and community education like how to recognize and report abuse. The Children's Advocacy Center of Paris (CAC) is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization that depends on the community to continue to serve children of horrific abuse. A child who has been abused is changed forever. The experience can't be undone. Our community is working together with the CAC to bring hope to children during the darkest moments of their lives. The CAC Model utilizes a Multi-Disciplinary Team of professionals that work these most difficult cases together as a team. The CAC is the hub that coordinates all aspects of a child's individual case, from investigation and prosecution, to medical evaluations and mental health. And with formalized partnerships with Child Protective Services, law enforcement, and prosecution, CACs are the one place where these partners can bring a victim where children are the central focus.
