Center for Alexandria's Children

Center for Alexandria's Children logo In 2008, there were 1,096 reports of child abuse and/or neglect in Alexandria. These statistics do not take into account the number of cases that are never reported. The Center for Alexandria’s Children protects children and strengthens families by coordinating the investigation, prosecution, treatment and prevention of child abuse in one safe, child-friendly facility. The CAC is a public-private partnership dedicated to one purpose: the elimination of child abuse in the City of Alexandria.
