The purpose of the Dallas Children's Advocacy Center League is to support, serve, and promote the interests of the Dallas Children's Advocacy Center and to be educational and charitable.

There are many ways you can get involved in the League:

Development Project:

Bingo Luncheon - This event funds the Clothes Closet and other programs of the Dallas Children's Advocacy Center. This luncheon features several fun-filled games of bingo, raffle prizes, and a wonderful silent auction. Donations from area merchants are solicited for bingo prizes, table prizes and a silent auction. Underwriting is also solicited.

Service Projects:

Clothes Closet: The DCAC League sponsors and manages the Center's Clothes Closet. The Clothes Closet provides new clothing, toiletries, toys, and school supplies for the children seen at the Center. Committee members gather donations and purchase needed items for the Closet. Members of this committee are also responsible for the maintenance of the Closet one week every month and to assist in the seasonal clothes swap twice a year.

Child Abuse Prevention Month Activities: April is Child Abuse Prevention Month. In 2008, the League and Center began working together to promote child abuse prevention and raise community awareness for DCAC at various local businesses.

Crimes Against Children Conference: League members volunteer as room monitors for the various seminars at the hotel. The Conference is held at the Sheraton Hotel in Downtown Dallas in August. Members are asked to work a four (4) hour shift, if possible.

Center Assistance: The Center has a need for volunteers to work at the Center on a scheduled basis. Volunteers are needed to work in the playroom with the children in 3 hour shifts or to help with data entry and to perform routine secretarial duties. Volunteers can elect to have a scheduled time or to be called as needed.

DCAC Staff Appreciation Luncheon: The League hosts a luncheon for the Center staff and the other disciplinary groups who work outside of the Center. The purpose of the luncheon is to foster better relations between the various agencies and to put a face on the League to the Center staff.
