The Isabella County Child Advocacy Center presents an annual Dan Denslow Advocate of the Year award each year. This award is named in honor of the late Detective Sergeant Dan Denslow, who served as a board member and fierce advocate for children. His legacy continues, as each year the ICCAC recognizes the contributions of others who work to protect children in our community and embodies the attributes that were greatly admired of Detective Sergeant Denslow.
​
This award is presented to individuals, businesses or entities who deal with sexual assault issues and go above and beyond in helping child abuse victims.
