FALL 2024 CATALYSTS
Women’s Health: The Power of Community Partnership

This year’s Catalyst Speaker Series will address women’s health issues after the Dobbs v. Jackson decision, which overturned Roe v. Wade and ended the right to abortion. Two years later, it’s clear that this has had a severe impact on reproductive rights in the U.S., highlighting the urgent need for effective women’s health programs.
Learn about the new and crucial Trust Her initiative expanding access to reproductive health care services for women in Dallas.

OUR WORK IN THE COMMUNITY
KIDS IN COURT CELEBRATED ITS 30TH ANNIVERSARY ON JUNE 21
WATCH THE FOX 4 NEWS COVERAGE HERE.
“Kids in Court is a powerful example of what community partners can accomplish when working together. I am so proud to see the work done by NCJW Dallas, DCAC, BACA, and our Child Abuse Division in helping the youngest victims we serve,” said District Attorney John Creuzot. “To all those who have volunteered and helped countless children over the past 30 years feel less anxious about facing their day in court, I say ‘thank you.’
READ THE ANNIVERSARY FEATURE IN THE DALLAS MORNING NEWS.
NCJW Dallas President Elaine Stillman explained why volunteering with Kids in Court is so rewarding: “My usual job was taking a Polaroid of each child and it was fascinating for them as the picture came into focus. The look of pride on their faces was so uplifting. I loved bringing fun to the courtroom setting, hopefully decreasing the potential trauma of testifying in court for many kids.”
The program partners with the Crimes Against Children Division of the Dallas County District Attorney’s Office and the Dallas Children Advocacy Center. The majority of children served have been victims of violent crimes, primarily sexual and physical abuse as well as child trafficking. Others have witnessed violence against adults or fellow children.
Happy 30th Anniversary, Kids in Court! We are grateful to all of you who’ve made this program a success!
