Special State Project

New Jersey Children’s Alliance is a statewide non-profit membership organization whose mission is to promote hope, healing, and justice for child abuse victims by supporting Child Advocacy Centers throughout the state with training, resources, advocacy, and leadership. We aid communities in providing a coordinated investigation and comprehensive response to victims of criminal child abuse by providing support, training, and technical assistance to Child Advocacy Centers and multidisciplinary teams in all NJ 21 counties.

Child Advocacy Centers offer a child-focused way of serving abused children through a comprehensive approach to services for victims and their families. Child Advocacy Centers stress coordination of investigation and intervention services by bringing together professionals and agencies as a multidisciplinary team to create a child-focused approach to child abuse cases. An important goal is to ensure that children are not re-victimized by the very system designed to protect them.

New Jersey Children’s Alliance is the New Jersey Chapter of the National Children’s Alliance (NCA). NCA is a membership organization providing support, training, and technical assistance to Children’s Advocacy Centers, multidisciplinary teams, and professionals across the country.
