About
Volunteers from around North Texas will read the names and ages of 27,484 children who were victims of child abuse in Dallas County last year. Because these children are minors and their identities must be protected, “Jane” and “John” will be used in place of their names. Names will be divided among each location for a simultaneous reading.
Save Jane will take place on Friday, April 8, 2022, at the following locations:
- Dallas Children’s Advocacy Center
5351 Samuell Blvd, Dallas, TX 75228 - Garland Police Department
1891 Forest Ln, Garland, TX 75042 - NorthPark Center
8687 N Central Expy, Dallas, TX 75225 - Grand Prairie Public Safety Building
1525 Arkansas Ln, Grand Prairie, TX 75052 - Irving Family Advocacy Center
600 W. Pioneer, Irving, TX, 75061 - Dallas Love Field Airport
8008 Herb Kelleher Way, Dallas, TX 75235 - Park South YMCA
2500 Romine Ave, Dallas, TX 75215 - South Dallas County Government Center
8301 S Polk St, Dallas, TX 75232

Save Jane Event 2019
In May of 2019, partners and members of the community joined with DCAC at Klyde Warren Park to read the names of each and every child reported as abused in 2018 – over 27,000. For 27 hours, their names were replaced with Jane Doe or John Doe – our community realized how many children are impacted by abuse each year.
