As we wrap up 2022, I am proud to say that we have provided support to thousands of children this year victimized by child sexual abuse and child sex trafficking. January is Human Trafficking Awareness Month, and I would like to invite you to join us in the fight to end child sex trafficking. Sadly, children are being sold for sex every day here in Harris County. We desperately need every person in our community in order to effect change and ensure that the children on our streets are not for sale. 

Sincerely,

Jennifer Hill,

Assistant Executive Director

The CAC's Assistant Executive Director, Jennifer Hill, represented The CAC at the No Trafficking Zone press conference held on Monday, December 19th. At this press conference, advocates discussed the importance of passing Senate Bill 5226 to prevent trafficking of children in school zones. Watch the press conference here!

This year's Spirit of Winter Holiday Toy Drive was a huge success, thanks to our partners and community members who donated over 4,500 toys!

Our children's services team served over 500 children at our annual Holiday Party where caregivers could pick up toys for their children and get them wrapped to put under the tree. At the party, the kids could snap a photo with Santa, dance with Elsa & Anna from Frozen, watch a holiday movie, or participate in crafts located all throughout The CAC.

We are grateful to each individual and organization that contributed to fostering this joyful experience for our clients and their families.

We are thrilled to celebrate our 2022 Cherish the Child Award Honorees; Callon Petroleum, Spindletop Community Impact Partners, The Gordy Family, and the City of Southside Place Fire and Police Departments.

Each honoree went above and beyond to raise awareness and empower child sexual abuse survivors and their families on their healing journey. We are so grateful for their consistent support and commitment to advocating for children in our community. 

Thank you for all you do to make our community safer for children!
