Child Advocacy Center | Ocean County Government

The Ocean County Child Advocacy Center is based on the premise that if you can make a difference in the life of just "one" child, then in essence, you've made a difference

Located in Toms River, NJ the Ocean County CAC provides comprehensive, coordinated services to children and their families in situations where there are allegations of sexual abuse or physical abuse and neglect.

The center is a child friendly facility that maintains a non -threatening atmosphere. The multi-disciplined team of professionals that work there are dedicated to reducing the impact of abuse and minimizing secondary trauma to child victims. The "child first" approach is foremost through out the process of interviewing, investigating, prosecuting, and advocacy. We invite you to explore the site and join us in our effort to strengthen the recognition, reporting and reduction of abuse, one child at a time.
