Eight Indiana child advocacy centers are either moving soon, expanding, or have recently moved operations to a new location.
Child Advocacy Centers often get their name from a local child or advocate. But McKenzie’s Hope is unique in combining the names of two children who were each murdered within about a year of each other.
In February of 2000, 3 year-old McKenzie Brown was murdered by her father in Huntington County. Eleven months later, 2 year-old Justin McKinzie was also murdered by a family member. The Huntington community pledged to find hope in the midst of these tragedies by establishing a Child Advocacy Center and honoring the lives of these children with the name of McKenzie’s Hope.
