“Childsafe provides a continuum of care to child victims of abuse and neglect and their supportive family members by providing family support services, advocacy, counseling services, and adventure therapy. Due to the complex nature of the cases we deal with, our system requires the involvement of many different professionals to investigate, prosecute and intervene. Childsafe's multidisciplinary team is made up of law enforcement, child protective services (cps), prosecution, and medical and mental health professionals sharing information and coordinating strategies sensitive to the needs of each unique case. Childsafe ensures the child victim, through a forensic interview, will only need to tell his or her story once, and provides a continuum of care including crisis intervention, case management services, counseling, and unique, innovative therapies. Childsafe provides trauma informed services in a child-centric environment to ensure the children who come through our doors feel comfortable and safe. Childsafe's trauma philosophy is that children who feel comfortable and safe are more likely to make a valid outcry of abuse, and families that feel supported are more likely to cooperate with the investigative process. Once an outcry is made by a child at childsafe, cps and law enforcement move forward with the investigative process. Over 98% of the children and families we provide services to have been referred to childsafe by law enforcement or cps.”
