  • We Are All Advocates

    The Carousel Center is called to aid child survivors of abuse and neglect, and their families in the everyday work that we do, whether it is through victim support, medical services and forensic interviews, therapeutic services, case management, or a host of other activities that ensure that children who are survivors of abuse can heal, recover, thrive, and shine.

  • Partners in Prevention

    The cornerstone of Partners in Prevention is to educate people how to make sure that children are in safe, nurturing environments. The program is designed to minimize the opportunities for abuse, promote healthy child development, and implement strategies to prevent child sexual abuse and exploitation.
