The Children’s Place
A Place to be Heard, A Place to be Helped
Who We Are
The Children’s Place is a Child Advocacy Center (CAC) specializing in assessments, advocacy, and therapy services for abused and neglected children in Wasilla, AK.
What We Do
We provide a safe location for law enforcement and CPS to conduct interviews with abused and neglected children, as well as emotional support, crisis intervention, and treatment referral services.
We seek to minimize trauma in young victims by working with them in a comfortable and neutral environment that results in more effective casework.
Our process includes a compassionate interview with our forensic interview specialist that details any abuse and need for medical or psychological care.
Victims undergo a forensic medical exam to asses their physical condition, identify any health problems, and advise on a treatment plan going forward.
