Who is CACar?
CACar is a membership organization with a network of 18 Child Advocacy Centers. The State Chapter provides support through training, funding, technical assistance and much more.
Our History
Our Purpose
The Children’s Advocacy Centers of Arkansas initially began as a network of three CACs called the Arkansas Association of Children’s Advocacy Centers in 1999. In 2003, the organization changed its name to Children’s Advocacy Centers of Arkansas. Our purpose and mission has remained the same: to assist and support the state’s local CACs and communities.
Act 975 of 2021 transferred administration of the MDT program to CACar. As CACar has evolved, our purpose of protecting Arkansas children remains steadfast as the leading resource within the State dedicated to a coordinated and comprehensive response to child abuse.
