The Tree House, Inc. is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to strengthen communities by reducing the occurrence and impact of child abuse through counseling, educating, supporting, and nurturing children and families in northeast Georgia.

​

The Tree House, Inc. is a Child Advocacy Center (CAC). In communities without a CAC, a child may have to tell the worst story of his or her life over and over again — to doctors, law enforcement, lawyers, therapists, investigators, judges, and others. They may have to talk about the traumatic experience in a police station, where they may think they could be in trouble, or may be asked the wrong questions by a well-meaning teacher or other adult who could hurt the case against the abuser.​​​The Tree House, Inc. began in 1996 when community members united and began working toward preventing child abuse.  Together, they created a child-friendly agency that offers prevention programs, as well as a place for children to come when they disclose abuse. The Tree House, Inc. now sees hundreds of families each year and offers a variety of services to help children and families heal from child abuse.
 

The Tree House, Inc. is a member of Children's Advocacy Centers of Georgia.
