Abstract

This manual is a technical assistance tool for new and existing Children’s Advocacy Centers (CACs) seeking National Children’s Alliance (NCA) accreditation or reaccreditation. It provides the foundation for understanding how the Standards for Accredited Members support NCA’s mission, and ensures the integrity of the CAC model of response to reports of abuse. This manual also enables users to conduct an analysis of accreditation readiness and stimulates strategic program planning aimed at delivering comprehensive, evidence-based services.
