The Tooele County Children's Justice Center
Making a Difference for Children and Families
Traditionally, investigation of child abuse required multiple interviews of the victim by police, social services, medical personnel, attorneys, and psychologists. Each interview occurred at a different place, and rarely in a setting, to the victim, that was familiar or comfortable.
The Children's Justice Center is a homelike environment that eliminates the need for multiple interviews, and is non-threatening to victims. By utilizing the CJC, investigators can coordinate and begin the investigative process with a minimal amount of trauma to child victims of physical or sexual abuse.
The Children's Justice Center coordinates:
- A comprehensive child and family interview process by trained professionals
- Audio/Video taped interviews screened for technical optimization, and in a child friendly environment
- Screening of cases for prosecution
- Counseling and Treatment referrals
- Victim/Witness support services
- Case progress tracking and monitoring
- Community and professional education on abuse issues
- Support and informational services for parents and guardians
- Case staffing by a team of professionals
