The Center for Child & Family Health is composed of four core branches of programming: medical evaluation, mental health, prevention and early childhood, and legal programs. This programming consists of services and support for children and families who have been exposed to violence and other traumatic events. We extend our mission through statewide, national, and global research and training to prevent and alleviate symptoms of trauma in children. The Center represents a collaboration of expertise from Duke University, North Carolina Central University, The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and the non-profit Child and Parent Support Services (CAPSS).
