Our History and Impact
In 1975, a small group of concerned citizens in Muskegon County noticed a lapse of child abuse prevention education in our community. Now, more than 46 years later, the Child Abuse Council of Muskegon has become an essential community resource, leading in child abuse prevention and intervention services.
​
Through our many services, we serve over 16,000 children in our community each year. These include forensic interviews, specialized medical examinations, trauma informed therapy, court preparation and accompaniment, personal body safety lessons, anti-bullying and internet safety, human trafficking awareness, personal advocacy, and Stewards of Children training.
We are dedicated to making a difference in the lives of children and ensuring that every child can grow up in a safe and loving environment.
