Cochise Family Advocacy Center "Lori's Place" is a client-focused facility. Here, professionals in disciplines including law enforcement, child safety, medical, mental health, and victim advocacy work together for the benefit of victims of child abuse, sexual assault, domestic violence, and human trafficking cases. Case coordination includes crisis response, investigation, prosecution, treatment, and support.

Our Values Include:

Victims always come first.
Our staff is our greatest asset.
Our multidisciplinary team is built on respecting each other and our shared vision to eliminate child and adult abuse.
Pride in knowing that we are doing our best from inception through prosecution in Graham, Greenlee, and Cochise Counties.

"Since its founding, the center has provided essential services and support to assist in abuse investigations for our most vulnerable populations." "Last year, 83/83 cases involving children were prosecuted and convicted, largely thanks to Lori's Place," said Brian McIntyre, Cochise County Attorney, in 2023.

"Lori's Place has become a critical partner in our community for ensuring timely and thorough evidence collection while, at the same time, providing compassionate care for victims," said Chief Chris Hiser of the Sierra Vista Police Department.

Services include a coordinated interview of child abuse victims in safe, child-friendly surroundings. This process avoids the need for multiple interviews, reduces the trauma of disclosure, and preserves evidence and statements to enhance offender prosecution and conviction. Cochise Family Advocacy Center, Inc. provides crisis intervention and support for victims and non-offending family members, information regarding next steps, referrals to, and information about different agencies involved and how they may affect the family, access to higher levels of care, and regular multidisciplinary reviews of cases to assure that services provided align with best practices. Our service area covers Cochise County, Graham County, and Greenlee County.
