QUALITY IMPROVEMENT WVCAN helped local CACs evaluate their programs, measure outcomes, and improve the quality of services they provide to children, families, and the communities they serve. Every CAC in WV received an individualized data report that compared their annual data with other CACs in the state and across the nation. WVCAN conducted on-site and statewide training sessions, worked with local CACs on board development and strategic planning, and hosted a virtual statewide conference for professionals in the field. This fiscal year, WVCAN trained 1,496 individuals and provided individualized technical assistance to all 21 CACs in WV.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJul 1, 2021 – Jun 30, 2022Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$310.7KExpansion of Child Advocacy Centers
