- Safe Horizon is the nation’s leading nonprofit victim assistance, advocacy and violence prevention program.
- Safe Horizon’s Child Advocacy Centers (CAC), play a critical, front-line role in responding to child sexual abuse and severe physical abuse by providing a coordinated and collaborative approach to the investigation of such cases, while ensuring that victims receive immediate, effective support.

- Learn and integrate a trauma-informed, client-centered approach, using an anti-oppressive lens, into your work with clients.
