A Closer Look at the Children’s Justice Centers
Children who are victims of crime have a variety of needs requiring special attention. To meet those needs, the Centers provide a homelike and child-friendly setting.
Interview rooms in the Centers provide a warm environment where children can feel as comfortable and safe as possible while being interviewed about reports of serious physical abuse, sexual abuse, and as witnesses to crimes.
In this comfortable atmosphere, children and families interact with specially-trained professionals who address their physical, mental and emotional needs.
