Training and Technical Assistance Project To Expand Children's Advocacy Centers Serving American Indian/Alaska Native Communities

The primary goal of this project is to increase capacity of indigenous-serving CACs so that they can effectively investigate, prosecute, and intervene in child abuse cases.
