Dayton Children's Specialty Care Center - Warren County and Child Advocacy Center - Warren County celebrate first year anniversary

Dayton Children's Specialty Care Center and Child Advocacy Center of Warren County is celebrating its first year anniversary. 

On Wednesday, March 11, the Child Advocacy Center of Warren County will host a celebration at the Warren County administration building, room 128 A, from 9:00 am to 11:00 am. 

The celebration will highlight first year accomplishments and discuss future direction of the center. Remarks will be made by Warren County leaders and a presentation will accompany the speakers. 

Dayton Children's Specialty Care Center - Warren County houses the Child Advocacy Center of Warren County, a multi-agency collaborative program in partnership with Dayton Children's and operated through grant funds and private donations. 

For 20 years, the Child Advocacy Center model has been a winning solution for abused children throughout the nation, providing comprehensive services in one community-based facility. Necessary medical, emotional, legal, investigative, and victim advocacy systems exist in one child-friendly location, ensuring that children are not further victimized by the systems intended to protect them. 

A unique, multidisciplinary response to child abuse enables law enforcement, child protective services, prosecution and the medical and mental health professionals work together as a collaborative team to deliver essential, specialized services to children and their non-offending family members. Some of these services include medical evaluations, child interviews, therapy and victim support. Dayton Children's will be providing the medical expertise for the advocacy center. 

Dayton Children's Specialty Care Center - Warren County and Child Advocacy Center - Warren County is located at 100 Campus Loop Road, Suite A, on the Premier Health campus near the new Atrium Medical Center in Franklin. The center is easily accessible from I-75, exit 32.
