The Childrens Advocacy Center Of Greater West Texas Inc

Court appointed special advocates (casa)- the casa program is designed to provide trained volunteers to act as court-appointed special advocates in the child welfare and juvenile justice system. Each casa's role is to investigate evaluate, and recommend to the court, what is truly in the best interest of the child. Casa's speak for the best interest of children who have been abused or neglected and whose home will be determined by a court of law. Casa volunteers provide stability, love, and guidance for the children they serve.

Family & youth services (fys) - the fys programs offer a whole family approach to strengthening the family by providing services aimed at keeping children in the home and families together. Fys provides services to build stronger families through our free programs: safecare augmented and parent mentor program. Safecare augmented is a home visitation program that addresses child development and encourages positive parent-child relationships for children from prenatal to five years of age. The program screens for developmental delays and health issues and refers families to community services. Parent mentor program is a referral program for families involved with the juvenile justice system or community referrals to provide parenting tips or guidance. This program provides parent education, resource coordination, and case management.
