The Dickerson Children’s Advocacy Center works with children affected by physical and sexual abuse, drug endangerment, and the witnessing of violence by providing a safe and caring environment where children and their non-abusive parent(s) or guardians can receive services and emotional support under one roof.
The nonprofit provides forensic interviews, forensic medicals, mental health and victim advocate services to victims of child abuse between the ages of 0 to 18 in Lexington County.
Silent Tears granted the organization $45,500 to help fund training for a nurse practitioner through the S.C. Child Abuse Medical Response System.
