Statewide Leadership.
Local Impact.
Protecting children across Arkansas requires statewide leadership to align systems, set standards, and support communities consistently.
As an accredited chapter of the National Children’s Alliance, Children’s Advocacy Centers of Arkansas (CACar) strengthens and supports Arkansas’ 18 member Child Advocacy Centers and coordinates 64 Multidisciplinary Teams (MDTs) that carry out the state’s collaborative response to child abuse.
CACar provides training, standards, and program guidance that equip CAC staff and MDT members to deliver consistent, trauma-informed services. We also advocate at the state level to secure the funding and policy support necessary to meet the growing demands of child abuse intervention across Arkansas.
