Victims of Child Abuse Act – National American Indian Alaska Native Subgrants Program
National Children's Alliance (NCA), is a not-for-profit membership organization and accrediting body for the nation's Children's Advocacy Centers (CACs). A Children's Advocacy Center is a child-friendly facility in which law enforcement, child protection, prosecution, mental health, medical, and victim advocacy professionals work together to investigate abuse, help children heal from abuse, and hold offenders accountable. NCA was first federally funded in 1993 to develop and expand CACs across the country through a national subgrants program. Since that time, NCA has developed more than 950 CACs across the United States.
Under the American Indian Alaska Native Subgrants Program (AI/AN), NCA provides funding for sub-grants to existing and developing Tribal CACs and multidisciplinary teams (MDT) that provide a coordinated investigative and comprehensive response to child abuse for Tribal children.
