Mission Statement: 

The Children’s Advocacy Project (CAP) is a team of committed agencies and individual professionals who work together to provide coordinated forensic and comprehensive services for alleged victims of child maltreatment and children who witness violence in order to minimize trauma to children, to break the cycle of abuse and to foster a more effective and efficient community response to child maltreatment.

IF YOU SUSPECT CHILD ABUSE...

If you suspect a child has been abused you are required to make a report

A suspicion, not proof, is required to make a report.


Report suspected abuse immediately to:
CPS 1-800-252-5400 or your local law enforcement.

 

The Children's Advocacy Project Story

Since opening in 2002, the Children's Advocacy Project has provided services to nearly 700 children in the areas of forensic interviewing, psychological testing, medical evaluation, individual, group and family therapy.

Services will also be available to child perpetrators of sexual assault under the age of 12, as these children have a need for specialized care to determine the possibility and extent of their own abuse.

Our multidisciplinary team has become very cohesive and CAP continues to be the preferred location for all child forensic interviews in Natrona County as well as from other counties in the state.  In 2005, fully 14% of all cases at CAP were referrals from other Wyoming counties and states.

One of our CAP interviewers was recently certified as
an expert in the field by virtue of her specialized
education and experience in the field of child
interviewing.

Since the development of the Children’s Advocacy
Project, no cases of child maltreatment have been dismissed due to taint of the witness or witness incompetence regardless of the age of the child.

CAP now provides medical evaluation for foster
children and children who have been removed from
their homes due to their parents’ methamphetamine
use and/or manufacture.
