Kids’ Advocacy Place
Caring for today’s victims - preventing tomorrow’s abuse
Kids' Advocacy Place - A safe place where abused children can go to tell their story
and receive guidance to specialized medical and therapeutic services necessary to
treat the physical, emotional and psychological trauma caused by abuse. KAP has
merged with Hill Country CARES and Judy Sullivan became the Executive Director of
Hill Country CARES, Craig Hensley is the Coordinator for Kids’ Advocacy Place. Now
there are two great non-profit agencies working together in our community to assist
families and children in-crisis!
Kids' Advocacy Place is one of 64 Child Advocacy Centers in Texas. We provide district
attorneys, law enforcement and child protective agencies a child-friendly place in
which to record the outcry reports of abused children. Our facility in Kerrville
is designed to minimize the trauma of reporting abuse on families, and our website
is designed to assist anyone associated with helping abused children. This site educates
our community about child abuse and teaches individuals how to recognize and report
abuse. We also educate about the effects of abuse on children, and we share tips
and strategies that will help non-offending parents and caregivers provide the best
possible care for abused children at home.
