April is Child Abuse Prevention Month. Child abuse prevention activities all throughout Escambia County


... children should not grow up being hurt ...

Our Belief:
Children are our most precious resource.  It’s hard to imagine someone harming a child, but it’s more prevalent then you may think.  Child abuse is a community problem.  No single agency or individual has the knowledge, skills or resources to provide all the assistance needed by abused children and their families.   

Our Vision:
The vision of Gulf Coast Kid’s House is to provide a place where child protective services, law enforcement, prosecution, medical and mental health professionals’ work together under one roof to provide comprehensive services. 

Our Mission:
Facilitate the investigation, prosecution, and treatment of child abuse and neglect and promote child abuse prevention awareness through community education.  

Our Goals:
Provide a child-friendly facility to serve abused children and their families in a neutral environment.
Minimize trauma to child abuse victims by streamlining the intervention process.
Develop formal, comprehensive, multi-disciplinary responses to child abuse, which will meet the needs of both child victims and their families.
Educate the community of child abuse issues and enlisting support to help prevent child abuse.
