Thank you to The Women’s Club of Grand Prairie for welcoming DCAC’s Training and Community Outreach team for a recent DCAC 101 presentation.

Through community education, we can all play a role in helping protect children. DCAC 101 provides an overview of child abuse and the collaborative work of our multidisciplinary team as we investigate cases, support child victims, and walk alongside non-offending family members.

Bring this important conversation to your own circle. DCAC offers free, customizable presentations for workplaces, schools, faith communities, service organizations, and neighborhood groups—helping more adults recognize, respond to, and prevent child abuse.

This week, we were honored to welcome a delegation of professionals from Indonesia, through the U.S. Department of State’s International Visitor Leadership Program (IVLP) in partnership with the World Affairs Council of Dallas/Fort Worth. 💙

The group visited DCAC as part of a professional exchange focused on combating cybercrime against children. It was a meaningful opportunity to connect, share ideas and experiences, and discuss the important work of protecting children in an increasingly digital world.

We are grateful to our visitors for the thoughtful conversation, their dedication to children’s safety, and their commitment to strengthening communities around the world. Opportunities like this remind us of the power of learning from one another and building shared understanding through connection.
