It’s a little-known fact that CASA of Tarrant County has a Young Professional Council, and it just turned one!

The Young Professional Council benefiting CASA of Tarrant County is an auxiliary group that works in conjunction to CASA’s mission and vision. These young professionals, between the ages of 21-39, are incredibly busy with their careers and homelife that volunteering as a full-time advocate is just not feasible. Right now. 

"All of my special moments go back to when I’m in an interview with our incoming volunteers and we get to the root of why they are here. Why you want to be a volunteer is such a personal and beautiful story. The fact that I get to have candid conversations every day as to why these people are making the jump to join the organization is truly so special." Hear more from Brianna
"Being a CASA has been rewarding in so many ways it is difficult to single out just one. However, the most consistently rewarding part of being a CASA volunteer is being able to form a bond of trust with the children I work with as well as the significant adults in their lives. This takes time and effort given the circumstances that resulted in their being involved in the Foster Care system. This bond is the foundation on which my advocacy is built." Meet Charlotte.
I know the commitment and dedication it takes to volunteer at CASA. The work they do is important and I hope they experience fulfillment knowing the positive impact they are having on these children's lives! Read more.

Capital for Kids also selected CASA of Tarrant County as a beneficiary of their annual fundraiser which was held in Dallas on November 17th at the Frontiers of Flight Museum. Over nearly 20 years, they have raised over $20 million for North Texas agencies serving children. “Capital for Kids is committed to support organizations that educate, protect and encourage North Texas’ most vulnerable children. Capital for Kids is a network of individuals and organizations involved and serving the investment management business dedicated to making a difference in the lives of children in need. Through the partnership of our sponsors and grant recipients, Capital for Kids supports organizations that educate, protect and encourage at-risk children. We believe every child deserves a chance to succeed.” We couldn’t agree more, and we are so thankful for Capital for Kids’ longstanding support of CASA of Tarrant County and our advocacy for abused and neglected Tarrant County kids!
From CASA volunteer Norma Davila:
"I can recall, on a recent visit during candid conversation with the two twin girls on my current case I asked these beautiful sisters “What would you girls like for your birthday?” to which they replied, almost in unison, “Ride a pony!!”. I thought instantly of how I could make this dream come true. With Foster Mom's permission, I was able to quickly gather a local Trusty Steed owner and a couple of pairs of boots for the girls. Before no time, we were on our way to a horse ride! The joy that radiated from each of their faces was a sight to see. Definitely one of the most special moments as a CASA."

CASA of Tarrant County celebrates its 40th anniversary this year! In 1983, Judge Scott Moore, presiding judge of the 323rd Judicial District, CPS Director Wayne Hairgrove, and community volunteers Rhoda Bernstein and Monna Loftis brought CASA services to Tarrant County.

Initial funding was provided by the National Council of Jewish Women and the Junior League of Fort Worth. Four decades later, thousands of children have been served by CASA volunteers who assist the family court system by representing the best interests of children in the State's care.

We look forward to sharing our stories of CASA volunteers who have worked to bring about the best outcomes for children in foster care over the years. Follow us on social media to read stories throughout the year!
OUR MISSION
