Aroostook Children's Advocacy Center Mission

Getting a child to the Aroostook 
Children's Advocacy Center

The Aroostook Children’s Advocacy Center is committed to minimizing trauma and promoting healing for children and their families following the allegation of sexual abuse; by providing a streamlined, timely, and evidence based community response, in a safe and neutral environment.

A referral to our CAC must come from law enforcement, child protective services, or the district attorney's office. 

The ACAC is located at 23 High Street, Fort Fairfield, ME. Our direct line is 207-472-6134. 

If you are not a CAC client and need support, you can call the statewide sexual assault helpline: 1-800-871-7741
