Advocacy Council for Abused Deaf Children (ACADC) is recruiting new volunteer members!

Who we are: Established in July 1991 the Advocacy Council for Abused Deaf Children (ACADC) has worked hard to improve system wide response to the needs of the abused deaf child, deaf parents, and adult deaf survivors of child abuse and deaf children/families at risk for abuse. At the time of its inception, the Advocacy Council was the only Child Abuse Council in the state of California to focus on the needs of the disabled and it has served as a model for other councils.

ACADC is committed to continuing to provide
● Advocacy for mental health resources
● Education to the Deaf Community of Los Angeles to reduce child abuse.

We are a volunteer council working in conjunction with Los Angeles Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS), LA County Child Abuse Prevention Councils, and Children’s Bureau.

If you are interested in joining together to discuss the needs of the Deaf community, collaborate on resources, and develop community engagement Join Us! When: January 10, 2022 3:00pm-4:00pm via Microsoft Teams
