Our community-based center and staff serve as first responders in allegations of all violence against children and help their caretakers navigate the system. The Safe Passage Children’s Advocacy Center provides hope and healing to the children and their families through forensic interviewing, family advocacy, and a variety of services designed to help children move through their painful experiences and grow to their fullest potential.

All telephone service providers in the U.S. must activate the number no later than July 2022; however, many providers will choose to implement the service sooner.
Once a Veteran's telephone service provider makes 988 available, Veterans can use this new option by dialing 988 and pressing 1 to contact the Veterans Crisis Line.
