Columbia Gorge Children’s Advocacy Center, which serves as a single point of contact for child abuse victims in Wasco, Hood River, Klickitat, Gilliam, and Wheeler counties, has changed its name to SafeSpace Children’s Advocacy Center of the Gorge. Executive Director Beatriz Lynch says they changed their name to help raise their visibility in the region after 11 years in operation, but what they do won’t be changing. SafeSpace is the Gorge’s only nonprofit that coordinates the efforts of child protection staff, law enforcement professionals, family advocates, medical experts, and mental health clinicians under one roof. Their website is now safespacecac.org.
