Do Childrens Advocacy Centers improve families experiences of child sexual abuse investigations?
The Children’s Advocacy Center (CAC) model of child abuse investigation is designed to be more child and family-friendly than traditional methods, but there have been no rigorous studies of their effect on children’s and caregivers’ experience. Data collected as part of the Multi-Site Evaluation of Children’s Advocacy Centers were used to examine whether CACs improve caregivers’ and children’s satisfaction with investigations.
