Victim Advocacy Community
Are you a victim advocate looking to connect with other advocates? Join the National Children’s Alliance (NCA) Engage Victim Advocate Community to network and share resources. Engage provides an online forum where victim and family advocates can connect with each other and share knowledge, resources, and tools. The forum will contain various topics/areas of interest for victim advocates to engage in conversation, share what’s being done at their children’s advocacy centers (CACs), and/or offer support and new ideas.
Guidelines
- The Victim Advocate Community is designed for victim service providers from diverse agencies including, but not limited to, those employed by:
- CACs
- Community-based agencies (e.g., DV, sexual assault/rape crisis)
- Police departments
- Hospitals
- Prosecutor’s offices
How to Get Started
