Here are our September numbers! While numbers are the easiest way for us to share our impact each month, our clients are so much more than numbers. We are honored to be able to walk alongside each of our children and families as they are on the path to justice and healing! 💛 To learn more about how we support our clients each step of the way, visit https://lnkd.in/e-6ZXjPV #dallascac #dcac #cactx

About us
The mission of Dallas Children’s Advocacy Center (DCAC) is to improve the lives of abused children in Dallas County and to provide national leadership on child abuse issues. DCAC coordinates the investigation and prosecution of the most severe cases of child abuse in our community. Last year DCAC served over 7,300 children (and their non-offending family members) who were sexually abused, severely physically abused, or who had witnessed a violent crime. DCAC provides a warm, child-friendly environment to help children who are referred by law enforcement or CPS. Our average client is a 9-year-old girl, sexually abused by someone she knows and trusts.

TRICK-OR-TREAT!! We are 27 days away from Halloween. Here are a few safety tips to help ensure that your kiddos have a safe night full of LOTS of candy! 👻 Stick to familiar areas that are well-lit and trick-or-treat in groups. 👻 Always walk on the sidewalks. If there are no sidewalks, walk facing traffic and as far to the left as possible. 👻Cross the street at corners using traffic signals and crosswalks. 👻 ALWAYS look both ways before crossing the street 👻 Make eye contact with drivers before crossing in front of them #dallascac #dcac #cactx #halloween #trickortreat #safety
