ChicagoCAC | Chicago, IL

Children’s advocacy center for support, outreach, and justice 

The Chicago Children’s Advocacy Center (ChicagoCAC) is Chicago’s first responder to reports of sexual and physical abuse. This non-for-profit organization combines law enforcement, social service advocates, and medical and mental health care providers under one roof. The two-story “row house” addition almost doubles the facility’s existing space, providing more offices, an education center and a standalone mental health clinic. A large vegetated canopy flanks the center’s new main entrance, providing visual respite for the second floor clinic while reducing the visual mass of a two-story addition.
