About Children's Advocacy Centers of Arkansas
Children's Advocacy Centers of Arkansas channels pass-through support to a network of local child advocacy centers and child safety organizations across Arkansas, with one Texas recipient appearing in the recent grant list. The largest recent award listed is $455,356 to Childrens Protection Center in Little Rock, followed by a $414,275 grant to Hamilton House Child & Family Safety Center in Fort Smith and a $372,357 grant to Childrens Advocacy Center of Benton Co in Little Flock. The pattern is organizational funding rather than direct service grants to individuals, and the recipient names show a chapter-level structure that ties the funder to local affiliates and intermediary organizations. The foundation’s giving is closely aligned with child abuse response services. Its stated focus areas include forensic interviews, family advocacy and support, mental health services for child victims, specialized medical exams for abuse, community awareness and prevention, and training for mandated reporters. The recent awards reflect that structure through repeated support for centers that operate in different Arkansas communities. Leadership is listed under Elizabeth Pulley, and the most recent 990 year on file is 2025. With annual grants of $13,356,766 and total assets of $3,575,821, the organization operates on a grantmaking scale much larger than its asset base suggests.
