So very proud of our very own Professor Monica Borunda Monica White for bringing a desperately needed and evolved approach to Forensic Interviewing to the community with the Launch of a passion project- "The Mobile Child Interviewing Lab"! Professor Borunda is a proud Board Member! For those of you that have worked with her, know that not only is she is subject matter expert and national leader in the field of Forensic Interviewing, but the quality and efficacy of this work is her work passion. She is a direct service provider and national trainer in forensic interviewing and studies.

The Mobile Child Interviewing Lab Website:
https://www.mobilecac.org/

The Why:
This new approach will simplify, expedite and strengthen the process of conducting child forensic interviews and most importantly, increase the accessibility of a trauma-informed approach for kids who have been witness to or victims of abuse and/or homicide. If you feel so inclined to support our Professor Borunda and this initiative- please donate and spread the news and donation link with your networks.

This is a grassroots non-profit and all support goes directly to the program services. ANY amount donated can help get this project off the ground and services directly to children that have suffered as victims of abuse.

Thank you Professor Borunda Monica White for your advocacy, expertise, and for being an integral part of the SBFC program and bringing this work to our community. You are a pioneer and leader in the field and we are honored to have you as a part of our SBFC team!
