CASA of Central Texas thanks everyone who had a part in making this year’s annual fundraiser, Tailgate with Team CASA, a success. From sponsors, to event coordinators and volunteers, to raffle and auction item donors, and guests of the event, all have all shown they want to be a part of ending child abuse and neglect in Central Texas.
Court Appointed Special Advocates, or CASA, serves abused and neglected children in the court system by recruiting, training and supporting community volunteers to advocate for those children while they navigate the foster-care system.
In 2022, CASA of Central Texas volunteers served 562 children in the Caldwell, Comal, Guadalupe and Hays Counties, but there were more than 309 children who did not have the voice of a CASA in the program’s four-county service area. Proceeds from this year’s event will be used to train and support more volunteers to help reach the goal of providing a CASA volunteer to every child in state care.
