Website Launch: Norfolk Advocates For ChildrenAugust 6th, 2025

We’re proud to announce the launch of a brand-new website for Norfolk Advocates for Children (NAC) — the official Children’s Advocacy Center (CAC) serving Norfolk County, Massachusetts. Working at the intersection of compassion and justice, NAC provides a multi-disciplinary, child-centered response to victims of abuse and their families.

Founded as part of a national network of over 750 CACs, NAC plays a crucial role in helping children and families navigate some of life’s most difficult challenges. Their team works in collaboration with public and private agencies to deliver immediate, culturally competent support in cases of physical, sexual, and domestic abuse.

Since receiving national accreditation in 2010 by the National Children’s Alliance, NAC has continually met the highest standards of service and care, achieving reaccreditation in both 2015 and 2020, with the next review scheduled for 2025. NAC is also an active member of the Massachusetts Children’s Alliance, which supports CACs across the Commonwealth.

A Site That Reflects the Mission

The new website, designed and developed by RooSites, ensures that NAC’s essential information, services, and resources are easily accessible to families, professionals, and community members.

We are honored to support the life-changing mission of Norfolk Advocates for Children through thoughtful web design and development. Please visit the new site and learn more about the incredible work they do:

Why Businesses Should Hire a Company Fluent in Both Web Design and DevelopmentJuly 10th, 2025

In today’s competitive online world, your website is often the first impression customers have of your business. But creating a website isn’t just about making it look attractive – it’s about building a platform that functions seamlessly, supports your goals, and delivers an outstanding user experience. This is why hiring a company fluent in both web design and development is one of the smartest decisions you can make.

Design and Development: Two Sides of the Same Coin

Many businesses mistakenly think that web design and development are interchangeable. In reality, they are two distinct yet deeply connected disciplines. Web design focuses on visual aesthetics, branding, layout, and user interface (UI), ensuring your website looks great and aligns with your brand. Web development, on the other hand, handles the behind-the-scenes coding, functionality, integrations, and performance optimization that bring the design to life and keep your site running smoothly.

When you work with a team fluent in both areas, you ensure your website is not only beautiful but also powerful.

Benefits of Hiring a Design + Development Company

• Seamless Communication Between Design and Code
  Designers and developers working under the same roof ensures your project flows smoothly. There’s no miscommunication between what is envisioned and what is technically possible – everything is built with a shared understanding of your goals.
• Better User Experience (UX)
  Design decisions directly impact functionality and vice versa. A combined team ensures your site’s navigation, calls-to-action, and layouts are built for the user, reducing friction and increasing conversions.
• Faster Project Completion
  When your web team handles both design and development, you eliminate bottlenecks caused by coordinating between multiple vendors. Projects are completed faster, efficiently, and with fewer revisions.
• Cost-Effective
  Instead of paying two separate companies (or freelancers) and managing two contracts, you benefit from bundled services and a unified strategy, often reducing your overall project costs.
• Future-Proof Strategy
  A company fluent in design and development can also advise you on scalability, SEO best practices, content management, and future integrations. This ensures your site can grow with your business.
• Consistent Brand Integrity
  Your website will reflect your brand consistently across design and function. A beautiful layout paired with intuitive functionality creates a trustworthy impression on your visitors.

Don’t Settle for Half the Expertise

When you choose a company that only focuses on design, you risk having a site that looks great but loads slowly or breaks under user demands. Conversely, hiring only developers might lead to a technically strong site that lacks visual appeal and intuitive user flow. Your business deserves both.
