Care House
Care House's Mission is to prevent and reduce the incidence and
trauma of child sexual and physical abuse in Macomb County, Michigan
through collaborative, multi-disciplinary, and effective family-centered
activities.
Care House is a child-friendly, family-centered facility that
coordinates the complex investigation, prosecution, and treatment
services to victims of child sexual and physical abuse. The major
component of this program is the single investigative interview. All of
the professionals involved in a case gather at Care House to witness the
forensic interview. This eliminates the need for the child to repeat his
or her story and relive the trauma of the abuse over and over again.
Care House's single interview promotes collaboration and
communication among a group of professionals who previously had limited
opportunities for interaction. This team approach expedites the
investigation of the child abuse cases, making the process more
effective for everyone involved.
Care House offers support, information and educational
programs to child victims and their families to promote the healing
process and break the cycle of abuse in future generations.
Care House is guided by a strong
Board of
Directors
consisting of a broad base of judicial, law enforcement, business, and
civic leaders, as well as community representatives.
Care House continually seeks funding to support the development and
expansion of these critical program components. Please
