Grayson County 18 years and under! When it comes to keeping kids safe, we can all be helpers! What does helping look like to you? Create something that shows how you can help others and/or how others help you. Due 10/17! For more info & entry form visit ow.ly/L4S550KWcFy

The more you know, the more you grow! MDT case review is a core service provided by the CAC. It literally takes a village (20+ professional agencies) to ensure safety, healing, and justice for all kids who have experienced severe abuse. Everyone has a role to play!

Special shoutout to a kid in our community who used his birthday as an opportunity to serve other kids! Instead of receiving gifts for himself Zane and his friends/family donated toys, supplies, crafts, snacks, gift cards AND cash to the CAC. Happy birthday Zane!!

Last chance to win $200! All submissions are due Monday 10/17! Details and entry form here --> cacgc.org/wp-content/upl…

Just like all forms of child abuse, domestic violence is not a “private, family matter.” Domestic violence affects us all. All of us must be part of the solution. For more info on DV and how you can help visit nnedv.org #Every1KnowsSome1

We want to give a big shoutout to these volunteers from Texoma Christian School for helping us stuff 1000 goodie bags for the kids at Fright Fest! Thank you for choosing to spend your day of service with us at the CAC.

Happy Halloween Grayson County! Remember - there is nothing SPOOKY about personal safety. In fact, while it can seem a little scary to talk to your kids about personal safety it is essential to keeping them safe from abuse. Need more info? Message us or email [email protected]!

STAY TUNED GRAYSON COUNTY!!

In observance of Veterans Day, the CAC will be closed with the exception of emergency cases. To all who served, we are thankful for your service. Happy Veterans Day!

MYTH Fact - Disclosure of sexual abuse is often delayed; children often avoid telling because they are either afraid of a negative reaction from their parents or of being harmed by the abuser. As such, they often delay disclosure until adulthood.
