The Texas Alliance for Drug Endangered Children was formed in an effort to protect Texas children living in volatile drug environments. Professionals from law enforcement, child protective services, the criminal justice system, medical and mental health professions, educators, and other child advocates have come together to make children a priority.

The Texas Alliance for Drug Endangered Children is available to provide training and consultation to Texas communities interested in creating their own local DEC programs. Additionally, we have developed inter-agency protocols that outline the appropriate process for handling children found in these dangerous environments. These protocols make everyone’s jobs more efficient, cut out the redundancy between different agencies, and more importantly, create a safety net to protect our children.
