About Us

Welcome! What is Liberty House?

Liberty House, a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization, is a safe and special place for children to come when adults are concerned that they may have been hurt by abuse or neglect. Liberty House is a neutral child abuse assessment center. Services available include a head-to-toe check-up and a carefully designed interview in an environment designed especially for kids. Liberty House also provides information and support for non-offending caregivers.

Liberty House is Marion County's only child abuse assessment center, the only place providing special medical assessment services for children. It offers a centralized place for children to receive medical and interview services for concerns of abuse. In the 1990's, the medical, mental health, child welfare, and law enforcement communities designed Liberty House: in April of 1999, Liberty House opened our doors to children and the community.

Liberty House serves children of all ages -- from infants to age 18. We assess children for concerns of sexual abuse, physical abuse and neglect. Our services are voluntary and free of cost to the family. We also strive to serve as a resource for community education and information about the issue of child abuse and the protection of children.

A community Board of Directors oversees Liberty House.

We invite you to learn more about the issue of child abuse and get involved in making a difference for kids!
