Dallas Children's Advocacy Center (DCAC) is a mid-sized nonprofit based in Dallas, Texas, focused on protecting abused children in Dallas County. It coordinates the investigation and prosecution of the community’s most severe child abuse cases and supports national leadership on issues related to child abuse. The center offers a child-friendly environment for children referred by law enforcement or child protective services, assisting them through the investigative process. Last year, DCAC served more than 12,000 children and their eligible family members who had experienced sexual abuse, severe physical abuse, or exposure to violent crime. The typical client described by the organization is a 14-year-old girl sexually abused by someone she knows and trusts. In February 2026, DCAC appointed Lori Allen as president and chief executive officer, signaling a leadership transition for the nonprofit.
