Overview

Mission

To engage and educate communities to prevent sexual violence and to support survivors and their loved ones as they heal and thrive.

What it reported doing in 2025

Community Engagement - DARCC works to prevent sexual violence through education, awareness, and community mobilization across North Texas. Through customized trainings, public awareness initiatives, and leadership development opportunities, DARCC equips schools, businesses, healthcare providers, faith communities, and youth leaders with tools to recognize, respond to, and prevent sexual violence. In 2025, DARCC continued to evolve its education and outreach efforts to expand access to prevention education and survivor-centered resources through scalable and accessible formats not limited by geography or staffing capacity. As part of this effort, DARCC coordinated and hosted 11 virtual "Lunch & Learn" educational sessions throughout the year featuring national experts on topics related to trauma, prevention, advocacy, and survivor support. These virtual offerings allowed DARCC to broaden community access to high-quality educational content beyond traditional in-person presentations and trainings. DARCC also facilitated three trainings for its Survivor Speakers Bureau (SSB), empowering survivors to safely and effectively share their lived experiences to promote community education and advocacy. Several SSB members participated in DARCC's volunteer advocacy training through a survivor panel that helped prepare new advocates to provide survivor-centered support. DARCC additionally launched The Radiant Report, an ongoing blog featured on the organization's website that provides educational content, survivor-centered resources, and community conversations focused on healing, prevention, and community engagement.

The verdict
