The Child Advocacy Center at BestSelf (CAC) is an innovative, comprehensive center offering safety, support, and a healing place for children and families affected by trauma and abuse in Erie County. The CAC incorporates Erie County’s Multi-Disciplinary Team, (MDT), which has representation from professionals in the fields of law enforcement, prosecution, child protective services, medicine, mental health, and victim advocacy, and provides comprehensive services in a child-friendly setting to children who are traumatized by sexual abuse and physical abuse.  Erie County has some of the highest rates for reported child abuse in New York State – over 5,000 reported cases annually, and with the current state of the Child Advocacy Center at BestSelf, our specially-trained professionals can assist less than 1/3 of the children who need our help.

The Hot Chocolate Snowballs are available for pre-order at Park Edge Sweet Shoppe, 325 Abbott Road, Buffalo, NY 14220, or by calling 716.824-0228 or visiting their website, through the holiday season.
