The CAC is the only social service agency in Mobile County that provides free services to help child abuse victims and their non-offending family members, and they are the only agency charged with the responsibility of coordinating services and interventions in cases of child sexual abuse. They have developed a Child Personal Safety Curriculum that is currently being taught in all Mobile County Public Schools.

The mission of the Child Advocacy Center (CAC) is to be the Mobile community response to the problem of child abuse. Abused children are interviewed here by a specialized, trained team of professionals. Children and their non-offending family members are referred for counseling and prepared for the criminal justice process.
