At DCAC, we have the privilege of working with some of the most dedicated law enforcement professionals in our community. They step into the hardest situations, carry heartbreaking stories most people will never hear, and still show up—again and again—for children. They investigate crimes against children with courage and compassion, fight for justice when kids cannot fight for themselves, and sit with families in moments of unimaginable trauma to help create a path toward safety, healing, and hope. Because of them, children are believed, offenders are held accountable, families are supported, and futures are changed. To every detective, officer, investigator, and law enforcement professional who stands beside us in this mission: thank you. 💙 #LawEnforcementAppreciationMonth #ThankYouOfficers #ProtectChildren #DCAC #EndChildAbuse

A lifetime of impact for children. 💙 DCAC co-founder, the late Lt. Bill Walsh, was inducted into the National Law Enforcement Officers Hall of Fame with a Career Achievement Award, honoring his decades of work to protect children and support those on the front lines when a child makes an outcry. This @nbcdfw feature shares how his vision helped build Dallas Children’s Advocacy Center and the @cacconference into national leaders in the fight against child abuse. Watch the story and see how his legacy lives on in every child and family we serve today. #DCAC #ChildAbusePrevention #ChildProtection #Leadership #OurKidsOurCityOurDuty

Bingo cards. Big laughs. Even bigger impact. 💙✨ Thanks to YOU, Bingo for Bravery was an unforgettable night of fundraising for kids receiving services at DCAC. The room was buzzing with joy, generosity, and heart—all fueling critical services that help children feel safe, heard, and hopeful again.

We are honored to announce that Tim Tebow will serve as the plenary speaker for the 38th Annual @cacconference . A global advocate for the most vulnerable, Tim Tebow has used his platform to shine a light on child exploitation and to fight for those who cannot fight for themselves. His voice, combined with thousands of professionals dedicated to this work, represents something powerful: A united front against crimes against children. The plenary session is available only to conference attendees, who include professionals working in the field of preventing crimes against children. This is more than a moment for our conference. It's a moment for the cause. #CACC2026 #ProtectChildren #GlobalImpact #DCAC

If a child trusts you with something painful, your response can change their future. 💙 Believe them. Stay calm. Ask gently. Report. When our community recognizes and responds to abuse, children are safer and futures are brighter. Your support helps us teach more people to see the signs and act with confidence.
