What We Do
Adults Working and Advocating for Kids’ Empowerment (AWAKE) is a nonprofit organization focused on advocating for victims of child abuse.
AWAKE coordinates services for victims of child abuse in Jackson and Swain Counties. We provide a child friendly environment where the child and their families receive services and support. Our motivated, caring staff works vigorously to educate the community to recognize signs of child abuse while also helping them understand the importance of reporting abuse.
How Children's Advocacy Centers Help Kids
Children’s Advocacy Centers are the best way to get abused kids all the services they need, all in one place, and to help them go on to thrive.
At Child Advocacy Centers across the state of North Carolina, the child comes first, and all efforts are made to ensure the needs of the child are met for his or her safety and well-being.
AWAKE by the Numbers
AWAKE works with a multi-disciplinary team of professionals, and without them, none of our services would be possible
