CARES Northwest is a collaborative, community-based medical program. Our mission is to stop child abuse and neglect through multidisciplinary prevention, medical evaluation, and ongoing treatment in partnership with our community.
What We Do
CARES Northwest is a collaborative, community-based medical program for the assessment, treatment and prevention of child abuse. We provide a safe, child-friendly environment for the assessment of children for whom there are concerns of physical or sexual abuse, neglect and exposure to domestic violence. Physical examinations and interviews are conducted in a comfortable environment to help children feel safe.
What We Need
- Administrative Support/Clerical
- Caring for People
Opportunities
- In person: Ongoing
When someone is worried a child's been physically or sexually abused or exposed to violence, we're that specialized medical clinic where they come for evaluation and we recommend treatment and follow-up. In the past 30 years, we've provided medical evaluations to over 36,000 children, and strengthened our commitment to stopping child abuse by developing child abuse prevention and trauma therapy services.
