About Us

Did you know that SCAN was the first child advocacy agency in Washington and the second in the nation? Now that is something to be proud of!

Spokane Child Abuse Network, SCAN, is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) agency whose mission is keeping children safe from abuse and neglect through education, training, and mentoring. Since 1973, SCAN has been dedicated to strengthening families in an effort to combat child abuse and neglect. To do this, SCAN staff work with over 250 families every month through one of our programs.

We believe that too often intervention occurs only after abuse is reported. Greater investments are needed in programs that have been proven to stop the abuse before it occurs - such as parenting education classes or home visits by nurses who provide assistance for newborns and their parents. SCAN will continue to provide these types of services to the community.
