CASA of Parker County
Serving the abused and neglected children of Parker County.
Things turn out differently when you volunteer |
CASA of Parker County works to recruit, train and support citizen volunteers who serve as Court
Appointed Special Advocates, or CASA Volunteers. CASA's are ordinary men and women from all walks of life who volunteer to advocate, in court, for children who have been abused and neglected, and have been removed from their homes by DFPS and are under the protection of our courts.
Our purpose is to help ensure each child we serve gets a safe, loving and permanent home, be it back with their family, placed with a relative or with a permanent foster/adoptive family as quickly as possible.
CASA of Parker County is an independent non-profit organization, funded largely by private contributions and foundation grants along with some state and county funding. |
