Partners with Families & Children: Spokane is an accredited hospital-based children's advocacy center. Children and their families who are affected by acts of child maltreatment: abuse, neglect and exposure to drugs and violence, receive expert evaluation and treatment services.
Description:
Partners uses a model of collaboration and partnership with other community agencies to provide the services necessary for restoring children and their families to healthy, productive lives. We especially welcome and respect each family's racial, ethnic and cultural traditions in a process of active participation and decision-making by family, extended family, friends and community supports.
History:
Partners with Families and Children builds on the work of Casey Family Partners(1997-2004) and the Regional Center for Child Abuse and Neglect that was established at Deaconess Medical Center in 1988.
Partners is now sponsored by both Deaconess and Sacred Heart Medical Centers. Partner has its own Governing Board, chosen from the community, which oversees all activities.

Overall Experience 
Volunteering at Kid's Court has been a wonderful experience. The Children's Legal Advocate is perhaps the best advocate I have ever had the opportunity to associate with.

A great understanding of how our justice system is made for adults, and not fair to make the children adapt to an adult setting
