Wow! So, we had a fantastic turnout for our Holiday Gift Giveaway event for our Kids House clients. Additionally, we were able to sponsor 19 families for the holidays as well. Today, our team bagged up gifts for about 50+ families. Even in the midst of a pandemic, our supporters and donors stepped up in a big way for our children and their families in need. Some of our families experienced extreme hardships this year while also dealing with current and past trauma, increasing tension during the holiday season.

#DidYouKnow? This year we’ve seen a decrease in our numbers since our children have been less visible in the community to our common reporters (i.e. teachers, doctors, etc). However, the severity of the child abuse and neglect cases have increased overall.
We are grateful for our partnering agencies like the Longwood Police Department, who donated three bikes for some special children who have the chance of winning a new bike this Christmas. Thank you for helping Kids House make Christmas special!
Through partnerships like this one, we are able to better provide for the children and families we serve. Would you like to learn more about ways you can help Kids House? To learn more, go to www.kidshouse.org/get-involved.

Did You Know that Kids House uses the CAC Model? At Kids House, we operate using the CAC Model. What that means is as a Children's Advocacy Center (CAC), Kids House provides a place where child abuse victims and their families can receive services and meet with Law Enforcement, Child Protection Services, Medical Professionals, Victim Advocate, Prosecution, and other professionals. The goal is to give the child a voice to tell their story ONCE to a trained interviewer, reduce re-victimization, and receive the support they need under one roof.
Here's a video by our friends at National Children's Alliance about how the CAC Model works.

The therapeutic services offered at Children’s Advocacy Centers (CAC) may look a little different from conventional therapy. Using evidence-based treatment methods, our Mental Health team provides quality, trauma-focused therapy to children in our community. Treatment often includes using creative arts and play therapy, spending time with our certified facility dog, and working with non-offending caregivers.

This #ThankfulThursday, we'd like to take a moment to thank Vital Signs of Orlando, Inc. and Wharton-Smith, Inc. for our new sign. In May, our sign was completely damaged, and we were using a temporary sign. Fortunately, thanks to our friends at Vital Signs and Wharton Smith, our new custom sign has been up since Thanksgiving. We sincerely appreciate all the effort and hard work that went in to make sure we stand out for families.

February 1 at 2:00 PM ·
Congratulations to Sheriff Lemma, who was recently honored to be the Government Leader Award recipient from United Abolitionists. Sheriff Lemma was nominated for his leadership to the SCSO toward combatting human trafficking, including having one of the region's first task forces. This award was named after the Polaris Star, also known as the North Star, and is what slaves used to find their way north to freedom along the Underground Railroad. This award is given to the “modern-day abolitionists in our community who are leading the fight against human trafficking in their profession and sphere of influence.”

We are incredibly grateful to have Caty joining the Child Advocate program with a hospital and Child Life Specialist background, and extensive knowledge of medical neglect cases.

Did you know that our Child Protective Team (CPT) Case Coordinators conduct forensic interviews to aid Law Enforcement and Child Protective Services in investigating child abuse? The forensic interview rooms are equipped with cameras and microphones, so Law Enforcement, Child Protective Services, and our medical providers can see the interview in real-time. This allows them to hear what happened, so the child doesn't have to repeat their story over and over again. The goal is to build rapport and allow the child a safe place to talk, in many cases for the first time, about their abuse in detail.
To learn more about our CPT team and our other services, visit our website at www.kidshouse.org/services.

So excited! I did it! I passed my Assistance Dog International re-certification for public access this morning. It has been three years since I had to re-certify! They have to make sure I still know my commands, listen to Denise and generally behave myself! 😂 They were very impressed and complimentary of the work I am doing here at Kids House. So, I'm good for two more years before I have to be tested again! (But you know Denise tests me on a regular basis, just to make sure I don't forget anything!) 🥰 I wonder if I could get a special frosty treat to celebrate?! -Jordon
