Join our Building Hope Campaign!

We are building a new Miami office that not only meets our current needs but also gives our agency room to grow into the future. Our new location will match the high-quality service and support our agency provides the community. We have been gifted land by the Ottawa County Child Advocacy Center and Ottawa County to build. We will be located right next to the Child Advocacy Center, which is next to the Ottawa County Sheriff's Office and Courthouse. We will truly be completing a safety hub for victim services in Miami- where all services are walkable, easy to find, and accessible. We have outgrown our almost 100 year old office and need to expand in order to the meet the needs of the community.

We still have funds to raise! We would love if you would consider contributing or learning more about our project here: https://getmeout.org/give/buildinghope.html

Intern Spotlight! 💡

Meet Amanda, our new BSW intern from Missouri Southern State University! Amanda will be advocating for survivors and helping with client services. The reason Amanda chose CCC is because, "I see the need within our community for support and resources for survivors. I want to be able to give clients a sliver of hope during times of need, as well as show them that there are people in the this world that truly want to see them succeed and help them become the best person that they can be." Her favorite part about being with us so far has been "seeing how the staff within the agency are beyond compassionate and go above and beyond for the clients”.

We are so happy to have you here! 💜
