The Child Advocacy Center of Rutherford and Cannon Counties has secured a $1 million commitment to help fund a building project. The Rutherford County Commission on June 12 unanimously approved the capital funding for the center, which provides free services for children who have been victims and supports prosecution of child rape and abuse cases, The Tennessean reports. The decision followed a unanimous recommendation from the seven-member Rutherford County Budget, Finance and Investment Committee. The center contributes to prosecutions by providing trained experts to interview children, who tell their stories on video recordings.
