The Center for Child & Family Health offers diagnostic, treatment, and preventive services for children at risk of experiencing trauma. CCFH also offers home visiting and support groups. We host a variety of major research projects to better understand trauma, violence, crime, and bereavement issues that relate to children. The Center was formed in 1996 as a collaborative effort between academia and the community. It has not only earned the respect of the local and regional community, but is a model that can be used on a national level to change the way we deal with child abuse.
We invite you to explore our site, and to contact us for further information.
