OUR MISSION
Bright Tomorrows Child Advocacy Center’s mission is to reduce trauma and promote healing for children and families by ensuring collaborative child abuse investigations while providing a safe, neutral, child-focused environment where children can be heard, believed, supported, and healed.
HOW CAN YOU HELP?
Child Advocacy Centers (CACs) across the nation are facing a critical challenge: significant cuts in federal grant funding, which has long been a primary source of support for our work. Since 2022, the federal Victims of Crime grant has decreased sharply, and this reduction is having a direct impact on our ability to provide essential services.
​
In 2022, Bright Tomorrows received $230,000 to help fund victim services. By 2023, this amount was reduced by over $80,000. The downward trend continues into 2025, with the grant being down by nearly $90,000 from 2022. For a small agency like Bright Tomorrows, these funding cuts are deeply felt. Our dedicated board and staff have been working tirelessly to raise funds and find creative ways to reduce costs, but we need your help.
​
Every dollar you donate or item you contribute goes directly toward helping us compensate for these cuts. Your generosity ensures that all child victims of abuse receive the support and healing they deserve. Together, we can continue to provide life-changing services to those who need it most.

Thank you for being part of this critical mission.
