The Children's Advocacy Center of the Coastal Bend (CACCB) is a non-profit organization that works with sexually and severely physically abused children, child witnesses to violent crime, and their non-offending family members.
CACCB is an accredited member of the Nation Children's Alliance and Children's Advocacy Centers of Texas, Inc. We receive funding from the CAC's of Texas, the Attorney General's Office, Victims of Crime Act (VOCA), and private donations.
Our mission is to lessen the trauma to abused children and their families by uniting the efforts of public agencies and enlisting the support of the community.
Our goals are to advocate for the rights of children and their specific needs and create an environment where child abuse is no longer tolerated.
Your Help is Needed.
In 2009 the Children’s Advocacy Center of the Coastal Bend conducted 2,052 forensic interviews and provided over 7,000 services to families in the Coastal Bend community. These numbers are substantially above the last few years.
The Children's Advocacy Center of the Coastal Bend provides more services than most major CAC's in the State on less than a quarter of their budget. Therefore, your support is needed and is important to the operation of our center.
A very special thank you to Valero for the very generous donation of $20,000.00.
Thanks to the Kiwanis of Padre Island for your continuous support and your donation. Special thanks to District Attorneys Carlos Valdez (Nueces County), John Hubert (Kleberg County), Martha Warner (Bee County), Patrick Flanigan (San Patricio County), County Attorney David Aken (San Patricio County), and Constable Precinct 5 Mike Roldan (Nueces County). We would also like to thank STARRS, especially Rachel Rivera and Dawn English, for donating $1000.00 from their annual mini triathlon at TAMU-CC. Another big thank you goes to the Lions Club of Sinton who donated $500.00 to us and challenged other organizations to do the same.
Your support and acknowledgement of the importance of our work for the protection of children and to the safety of our community means so much!
