Our mission is to provide all victims of child abuse in New Hampshire a neutral environment where justice, healing, equity and prevention are fostered through the consistent, high quality and sustaining collaboration of community partners.

Every child deserves to feel safe and loved, with the stability and emotional support needed to grow into a happy, successful adult. When a child becomes a victim of abuse or neglect, they must feel heard and believed. It’s crucial they know they can overcome their trauma and achieve their potential.

Granite State Children’s Alliance and the network of Child Advocacy Centers believe that safeguarding children is everyone’s responsibility. We play an integral part in providing justice, healing, and hope to tens of thousands of children impacted by abuse or neglect.

We collaborate with public and private organizations at every level to coordinate child abuse investigations and provide ongoing support for victims and their families.

Our comprehensive services include family support services, ongoing critical case coordination, and referrals for behavioral health and specialized medical exams. Our evidence-based forensic interviews are conducted by highly-trained professionals and designed to be child-friendly and trauma-sensitive, ensuring a neutral environment that validates children’s experiences. We offer education and trainings to consult and empower individuals to recognize, report, and prevent abuse.

Child abuse inflicts deep and enduring wounds, but with timely intervention, support, and counseling, children can learn to cope and heal. Together with our dedicated staff, volunteers, supporters, and partners, we amplify children’s voices.

Because every child deserves the opportunity to heal, survive, and thrive.
