WE CAN’T CHANGE WHAT HAPPENED,
BUT WE CAN CHANGE WHAT HAPPENS NEXT…

A child who has been abused is forever changed. The experience can't be undone. At Angelina Alliance for Children, our community is working together to lessen a child's pain, anger, fear and confusion of the investigation and prosecution of his or her abuser. We are changing what happens next.

Imagine yourself as a child having to tell strangers over and over again about how someone cruelly assaulted you. Angelina Alliance for Children opened in November of 2002 to give abused children a safe place to go and tell their story.where their story will be videotaped so that investigative agencies can view the tape instead of repeatedly questioning the child.where loving family members of abuse victims receive support.and where hurting children are surrounded by caring adults and smiles.

The Mission of Angelina Alliance for Children is "To serve child victims of sexual and/or physical abuse, minimizing their trauma through a team approach in a child friendly environment."

Executive Director Cathy Pavlic and Forensic Interviewer Amy Doahoe were recent guests on the City of Lufkin's cable news program, City Hall Update.  We have a streaming video of the interview which also contains the video titled "The 11th Commandment".
