Founded in 1995 as a collaboration of the nonprofit Children's Advocacy Center of Suffolk County, Inc. and more than 25 child‐serving agencies, the CAC represents a true alliance between the private and public sectors resulting in streamlined, expert care for child victims and their families. We serve all Suffolk County children under age 18 who are impacted by child sexual abuse, serious physical abuse ,commercial sexual exploitation and exposure to violence.
