Our Vision
More than 7,000 cases of child abuse and neglect are investigated annually in Wake County.
Abuse and trauma take everything away from a child — they have no place where they feel safe, where they can be nurtured to heal and grow. As the only organization in Wake County that does what we do, SAFEchild is fighting every day to change that.
We are working to give every child a home where they feel safe to heal and to grow, while providing caregivers, guardians and parents with educational resources to stop the cycle of abuse.
But to do that, we need a new place to call home.


A Safe New Home
The new 20,000-square-foot building has been designed with special attention to confidentiality and a child’s sense of security.
In this new home, we will be able to serve 1,200 children and 30,000 families each year. It will provide a stable, private environment for children and families to receive medical exams, counseling, treatment and support.
Together we can support more families by helping them stop the cycles of abuse. But we can’t do it without you.
