Congratulations Graduates
National statistics show that about half of youth in foster care do not earn their high school diploma. Only six percent will go on to receive a 2-year degree, and 4 percent will continue to a 4-year program.
We are very excited for each of our CASA youth who successfully earned a degree of any level this Spring. Like Ronika, pictured with her past CASA Volunteer, who received her Masters from UTSA.

LIFT THEIR voice
CASA volunteers are individuals from all walks of life who speak up for a child’s best interests in court. You are not a foster parent, you are a voice making a real difference at a critical turning point in the child’s life.

What is a CASA?
By becoming a CASA volunteer, you provide a voice for children who have been abused or neglected. Check out our Frequently Asked Questions section for more details on CASA and what it means to be a CASA volunteer.
When a child enters the foster care system because his or her home is no longer safe, a judge may appoint a committed volunteer to help. That volunteer is called a Court Appointed Special Advocate®, or CASA. CASA volunteers are screened, highly trained and then appointed by judges to represent and advocate for a child’s best interests in the child protection system.
CASA volunteers are each assigned to help one child or set of siblings at a time, so they can focus on giving that child or sibling group the individualized advocacy and attention they need. CASA volunteers save taxpayers’ money and children’s futures by helping children find safe, permanent homes as soon as possible.
CASA of Central Texas, Inc. provides valuable volunteer advocacy for abused children from Caldwell, Comal, Guadalupe and Hays Counties. CASA volunteers serve as the “eyes and ears” for the judges in child welfare cases. This includes researching each child’s situation and making objective recommendations to help them reclaim their childhoods from abuse and neglect. CASA volunteers are frequently the only stable presence in these children’s lives.
CASA volunteers bring three critical qualities to their work: they focus on one case at a time; they bring a unique perspective to the court case; and their sole objective is representing the best interests of the child.
