Our third Black Hair Care Summit was held on February 19, 2024 at the Arlington ISD Dan Dipert Career and Technical Center. We welcomed a panel of ten salon owners, barbers, and stylists who talked about their why, on giving back and cultivating their client’s confidence from the inside out. Twelve children ranging from 10 months to 18 years old received free hair styling services, consultations and hair products from Level Up Hair Care. It was a great success, and the stylists had an amazing time serving the youth and are looking forward to the next one!

"As soon as I learned about CASA’s mission and core values, I knew it was an agency I wanted to be a part of. As a mother, I couldn’t help but feel a tug at my heartstrings learning how CASA provides a voice to Tarrant County’s abused and neglected children. These kids are facing some of the most difficult and challenging situations and CASA is there supporting them, so they never have to feel like they’re alone. The mom part of my heart always feels this instinct to look out for and help kids, even if they aren’t my own. What better way to “follow my heart” than to join an organization who is dedicated to doing just that?" Hear more from Maggie

"I was involved with CASA throughout college and knew that I wanted to volunteer my time after graduation. Working with CASA throughout the years has shown me what an impact it has on the community and I wanted to be a part of it for the children!" Meet Caroline.

March is #WomensHistoryMonth and we are proud to have many incredible women leaders in our organization. We are so thankful for inspiring women like our three CASA volunteers below for exemplifying what it means to show unwavering commitment to youth in need.

CASA Volunteer Candy LeBlanc

"I started a new case in January and the most rewarding part is using my education as an RN to provide medical advocacy for a medically challenged child that can’t speak for herself."

CASA Volunteer Esther Grant

"The most rewarding part is being the kids grow and be healthy and happy. I am also rewarded when the birth parents do what is required for them to get their children back."

CASA Volunteer Meredith Floyd

"This truly is such a unique and perspective-shifting experience. Every kid you work with will be different and open your eyes in ways you didn't think were possible. It's easy to say you don't have time, but this really is what you make it!"

Three girls came into care in May 2022 and the OCOK worker reached out to CASA Amy, who she was working with on another case at the time and asked her to be these girls’ CASA too. Amy became the girls’ CASA in June 2022 and has stayed with them through 2-3 placements, and 5 OCOK specialists. The girls have been with their adoptive parents since October 2022, and they are wonderful. They keep in regular contact with the girls’ siblings and birth Mother. It’s truly the best outcome for these sweet girls! They still have a brother in foster care Amy is actively working with and their sister was able to go home to her paternal grandmother a few months ago.
