Michelle enjoys reading and watching movies with her family.

Victim Advocate - Charleston Office

        Cadance Young is a Victims Advocate in Child Law’s Charleston office. They started in January 2021 and, in addition to their Victims Advocate role, they have overseen projects such as Kids Run the Nation. Currently the sole Victims Advocate in the Charleston office, Cadance is both independent and creative in handling their duties to serve our clients and often collaborates with their lead attorney’s, making them a true team player!

Cadance is also working to expand their current knowledge of the legal field they participate daily by taking a course led by Executive Director Cathy Wallace. Cadance considers themselves a ‘forever student,’ eager to build on their academic foundations in paralegal studies, with a specific focus on juvenile court systems and trauma support-based advocacy. Their hunger for knowledge and determination to turn information into action has contributed to their success in the Victims Advocate role.

When not at work, Cadance spends their free time reading fantasy novels, hiking, and, in the summer, cliff jumping into the local lakes. Cadance has 5 cats, but their favorite one (yes they have a favorite, don’t judge) is a big fluffy cat named Pa. He is usually referred to as “mr. man, kity cat man, papaw, possum, and biggest chonk.” They like playing fetch together and going to walks, or “drags” as Cadance calls them since Pa prefers to be pulled along.
