Meet Janina Tauro and Peaches the Therapy Dog!
Over the next several months we will be posting a series of these spotlights on the SCCAC Facebook page to highlight the incredible professionals who make-up the SCCAC.
Thank you to everyone who attended our April 1 Pinwheel Event on the New Haven Green. It was a wonderful event to honor the children we serve and the professionals who work tirelessly to investigate and provide support services to children and their families after a disclosure of abuse.
Check-out this news story for more information on the event.

Please join us as we spotlight Child Abuse Awareness Month by planting 285 pinwheels in the New Haven Green representing each child who received services from the South Central Child Advocacy Center in 2014. This year we will also be honoring a few outstanding Multidisciplinary Team Members for their dedication to the field of child abuse as an investigator or service provider.
A brief ceremony beginning at 10:00 a.m. will include remarks from New Haven Mayor Toni Harp and Ansonia/Milford State’s Attorney Kevin Lawlor.
April is Child Abuse Awareness Month!
The South Central CAC will be honoring the children and families it serves through out the month of April by “planting” pinwheel gardens in each of the 22 towns it serves. Keep your eye out for pinwheels in your town!
We took the pledge, did you? Listen to President Obama’s powerful message at the Grammy’s about ending violence against women and girls and take the “It’s On Us” pledge at itsonus.org.
