“When danger arises, zebras instinctively create a protective circle around their young.”

The Zebra Centre emulates this powerful bond by encircling each child with unwavering support throughout their entire journey. Their plush Zebra serves as a gentle reminder that, much like a cherished stuffed animal, the Zebra Centre is dedicated to being there every step of the way for the community’s children.

Mission: They serve children and youth who have experienced abuse, supporting them through the investigative, justice, and healing process with a continuum of multi-disciplinary resources.

Vision: They will be innovative leaders in fostering an inclusive community where every child and youth is heard, respected, and safe from abuse. They aim to advocate for children and youth impacted by child abuse by reducing re-traumatization and engaging in prevention, education, intervention, and research. They aim to build, engage, and bolster child-centered, collaborative partnerships and inspire commitment for their work. Their focus is on investing in developing their team, strengthening their culture, and sustaining their organization to better meet the needs of their diverse community.
