About Us
What we are
A Children’s Advocacy Center is a child-focused, community-oriented,
facility based program in which representatives from many disciplines
meet to discuss and make decisions about investigation, treatment,
and prosecution of child abuse cases. They also work to prevent
further victimization of children.

We investigate child abuse reports of sexual and physical abuse
in Washington County. We are the only agency providing a comprehensive
approach to child abuse investigations.

Phone: 240-420-4300
Who we serve
Children (from birth through 18 years of age) and their non-offending
family members in Washington County. The Center serves only victims
of abuse. Offender treatment is referred to the appropriate community
resource.
