Overview

Mission

The purpose of the organization is to provide legally-defensible, trauma-aware and victim-centered recorded forensic interviews of child abuse victims free of charge to law enforcement detectives, social workers and county and city attorneys investigating their cases, so they can use them as evidence to prosecute their offenders. In addition, the organization provides advocacy services to the victims and their non-offending family members. We conveniently provide these services at the geographic location of the requesting agencies to simplify the process, and expedite and strengthen their cases

What it reported doing in 2025

2025 was our first full year of operation. We completed 30 forensic interviews of abused children and delivered family advocacy services to several of the victims and their families. The requesting agencies were the L.A. County Sheriff's Department, Special Victims Bureau, the Department of Children and Family Services, the Inglewood PD, the L.A. Police Department and Montebello PD.Our progress with delivering the forensic interviews was somewhat hampered by the lack of reliability of our mobile van, requiring us to resort to using our own vehicles, conducting the interviews at locations sourced by the requesting agency (instead of the van), and recording the interviews using our portable recording kits.In 2025 we were able to raise over $20,000 from private donations and in January of the current year we received a matching funds grant from The HAND Foundation for $78,000 which will enable us to secure a newer, and far more reliable, mobile van

Operating model

Revenue model
Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of total spending goes to programs and the filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and program spending has declined or grown slowly.
