IT TAKES A TEAM: Inside the SAFEchild Advocacy Center

This month, we’re taking you behind the scenes of the SAFEchild Advocacy Center and introducing you to the people who make this work possible.

Throughout the month, we’ll hear from staff in different roles about how our team works together to create a more supportive experience for children and families, reducing the risk of retraumatization, providing greater support, and helping children find hope and healing.

When it comes to helping children, it takes a team. 💙

For more than a year, Judith has been giving her time to SAFEchild, guided by a deep belief in the importance of protecting and nurturing children.
When asked why she volunteers with SAFEchild, she shared:
"Children have always been, in my eyes, precious beings to protect and nurture abundantly. With that, I searched for organizations that do this kind of work and found SAFEchild. While I cannot undo the unfortunate events many children, myself included, have witnessed and experienced, I can take action, share my personal life lessons learned, and be the adult that many children need in a lot of these heartbreaking scenarios."
We are incredibly grateful for Judith and the compassion, perspective, and dedication she brings to SAFEchild. Thank you for showing up for children and families and for being part of our mission! 💙
