Center for Alexandria's Children
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.

Learn about all we have done over the past five years and how you can help ACT continue to better our community for decades to come. ACT for Alexandria helps people who care deeply about our extraordinary city to do the greatest good for those in need among us. The result, from one end of Alexandria to the other, is greater assistance for those who lack basic needs and preschool for their children...new supports to heal or prevent child abuse...and more powerful tools for those who yearn to build a new future or simply need a neighbor's helping hand today. ACT magnifies the difference each of us can make by: - directing generous donations of time and dollars to effective existing services - creating innovative and successful solutions from the "building blocks" of existing services - strengthening social service organizations so they an accomplish more with their always-precious resources ACT is raising the level of effectiveness in giving to our community so we can have the greatest impact on Alexandria's families and children.
