HACAN

Hispanics Against Child Abuse & Neglect Inc. (HACAN) is a nonprofit educational and advocacy organization dedicated to strengthening immigrant families in Northern Virginia through parent education and out-of-school activities that serve and support youth.  Founded in 1985, HACAN fosters strong family relations and promotes child abuse awareness and prevention in the community.

With support from HACAN, families are able to become an active part and to draw strength and from their own community.  HACAN’s programs are key to providing culturally-sensitive support to families in the community and providing a bridge for children to help their families access the guidance and resources they need.
