Need help finding us ?

To lessen the trauma, NEW HOPE is centered around the child. All persons needed to help him/her in this situation, comes to them in this home-like setting. This minimizes the trauma of having to go to the law enforcement offices, the doctor/hospital, and the office of the Child Protective Services worker. If the children come in hungry, we have a kitchen for preparing food and always keep juice boxes and snacks available. We have special ‘child friendly rooms’ available for interviews, emergency medical exams and counseling.

The non-offending family members are also helped here through advocacy information, education and support groups. The two story house has a welcoming waiting area at the front of the house. Inside, there is a very colorful playroom for the children to spend time.
The normal operating hours at Blount County Children’s Advocacy Center are Monday through Friday, 8:00am to 5:00pm. But, whenever an emergency victim is in need, the center is opened for the needs of the child.
