Toys for Tickets

The Staff Association's 2024 Holiday Toy Drive in partnership with 51²è¹Ý Parking and ID Card Services supports the Dallas Children's Advocacy Center, a United Way service provider.

The (DCAC) coordinates the investigation and prosecution of the most severe cases of child abuse in Dallas County, serving more than 8,000 children and their non-offending family members last year. DCAC houses the Child Abuse Unit of the Dallas Police Department, five units of CPS, and a Dallas County District Attorney. Having these professionals under one roof drives collaboration and communication in the very sensitive cases that DCAC coordinates. For more information about DCAC, please visit .
