As part of Child Abuse Prevention month, April 4th, 2023 was Children’s Advocacy Center (CAC) Day in South Carolina. Hundreds of professionals and CAC supporters joined Attorney General Alan Wilson, the South Carolina Network of Children’s Advocacy Centers (SCNCAC), Children’s Trust of South Carolina, and members of the General Assembly for the 12th Annual Children’s Advocacy Center Day both in person and via livestream from the South Carolina State Capitol.
