It is with profound sadness that Dallas Children's Advocacy Center announces the passing of Retired Dallas Police Department Lieutenant Bill Walsh, our founder and a relentless advocate for child protection and family violence prevention.

Throughout his life, Lt. Walsh dedicated himself to protecting children and families, leaving behind a legacy of hope, justice, and social change. Bill's visionary leadership not only transformed the local approach to child protection but also created a safer world for children everywhere.

At the request of the Walsh family, we have established a memorial page at dcac.org/bill-walshs-legacy/. We invite professional colleagues, friends, and supporters to visit the page to share memories and make donations in his name, ensuring that his vision continues to inspire future generations of child protection professionals.
