We are the Friends of the Camden County Child Advocacy Center, and we help support and bring awareness to the Child Advocacy Center of Camden County. Our primary mission is to raise funds to financially support the Child Advocacy Center, which is a physically and psychologically safe space where children of abuse and neglect can receive services.
Neglect is the most common form of maltreatment at 75% of reported cases. 17.2% of reported cases involve physical abuse and 8.4% involve sexual abuse. Some are victims of more than one category.
The Friends organization helps raise money to suppliment public funds, allowing the Center professionals to provide more thorough aid to the most vulnerable.
