Denver Children's Advocacy Center PREVENT ABUSE - STRENGTHEN FAMILIES - RESTORE CHILDHOOD Our mission is to Prevent Abuse, Strengthen Families and Restore Childhood.

We accomplish our mission with integrated, research-based programming, a dedicated professional staff and volunteer board, the support of countless community partners, and individuals like you who understand the importance of our work. DCAC’s programs fall along a continuum of care that includes prevention, early childhood intervention, crisis response, forensic interviews, mental health treatment, and family support services. Children and families access the services they need at any point in the continuum. We serve children in their homes, their schools and early learning centers, through telehealth, and at our child-friendly campus on Federal Boulevard. Understanding the many challenges our families face (for example: lack of transportation, distance, time) DCAC decided to offer services at various satellite offices in 2015 as well. You can learn more about the work we are doing on our website at www.denvercac.org.

This month, we’re celebrating Zach Carlson’s eight years at DCAC! Over that time, he’s witnessed tremendous growth of DCAC. What Zach appreciates most is the shared commitment to DCAC’s mission and the willingness of colleagues to step up wherever they're needed.

“I love that we are a flexible organization that continually adjusts to meet the needs of kids and families,” Zach shares. “I’m excited to see how our activities and programs change to meet the changing realities of our community.”

Thank you, Zach, for eight years of dedication to DCAC and the children and families we serve!

Meet our new board members!

Jackie brings experience building relationships and connecting organizations with their communities. “I’m drawn to the hope at the center of this work and the difference the right support can make in a child’s life.” Jackie looks forward to helping raise awareness about child abuse prevention and the role we can all play in protecting kids.

Cassidy is an attorney whose background includes education policy and working in a law school clinic supporting children who experienced abuse and neglect. She was drawn to DCAC’s comprehensive approach to helping children and families and is excited to support an organization working to ensure all children have the resources they need to thrive.

We are excited to have these two leaders on our board! 🎉

It's DAF Day! If you have a donor-advised fund (DAF), you already have charitable dollars set aside to make a difference. Why not put them to work for children and families in our community?

A gift from your DAF to Denver Children’s Advocacy Center helps provide trauma-informed therapy, forensic interviews, family support, and child abuse prevention education, giving children the safety, care, and hope they deserve - all at no cost to them.

Making a gift is easy! Simply contact your DAF provider and recommend a grant to Denver Children’s Advocacy Center EIN: 84-1155873

Together, we can help more children find hope and healing.

A big THANK YOU to our friends at Whole Foods Market for spending time volunteering at DCAC!

Their team rolled up their sleeves to help make our campus even more welcoming for the children and families we serve. Volunteers:

✨ Deep cleaned therapy rooms in our Forensic Interview building
🌸 Painted cheerful flowers near the courtyard outside our Treatment House
💛 Assembled wellness kits for families
🍎 Restocked our Family Market with more snacks

These thoughtful touches- from a clean, comforting space to a snack when a family needs one - help us create an environment where children and caregivers feel supported and cared for.

Thank you, Whole Foods Market, for sharing your time, energy, and creativity with DCAC! 💙

💜 Standing with survivors. Standing together.

Last week, members of DCAC’s Rapid Response Team joined the Rose Andom Center and community partners for the annual Domestic Violence Awareness Month Walk, kicking off October by raising awareness and showing support for survivors of domestic violence.

For our Rapid Response Team, this work is deeply connected to what they do every day: supporting children and families during some of their most difficult moments and helping ensure they are met with compassion, safety and support.

We’re grateful to the Rose Andom Center for bringing our community together and to everyone who walked, spoke out and stood in solidarity with survivors.

Throughout Domestic Violence Awareness Month, we’re reminded that creating safer communities takes all of us. 💜
