Support our fight to end child abuse and neglect
All proceeds go directly to supporting the programs and services of the
Nathan Weidner Children's Advocacy Center whose mission is to prevent child abuse and neglect through education and intervention.
Operating under the philosophy that child abuse and neglect is a multi-faceted community problem, the Nathan Weidner Children's Advocacy Center is the lead agency in providing a coordinated community response to child abuse and neglect.
Combining the wisdom and professional skills of a specially trained forensic interviewer and crisis counselor with investigative representatives of Children's Protective Services, the Prosecutor's Office, all law enforcement agencies, and medical personnel, the Nathan Weidner CAC attempt to streamline the most effective child- and family-focused response from initial investigation to the prosecution of the perpetrator and the medical and therapeutic treatment of the child victim and their non-offending family members.
