“The Chocolate Extravaganza is a fun community event, but most importantly, the funds raised at this event provide much needed services for sexually abused children in the Tri-State area,” said Lisa Phelps, Executive Director, “this fund-raiser allows us to continue to provide quality services, free of charge, to area children and their non-offending caregivers who have been affected by sexual abuse.”
Hope’s Place provides specialized medical exams, forensic interviews, counseling, and advocacy services to children who have been sexually abused. Hope’s Place served over 1,800 child survivors of abuse in 2021, over 1,000 of those were new to our center.
