CASA of Central Texas is proud to announce its participation in Child Abuse Prevention Month this April. As part of its ongoing commitment to protecting and advocating for children, CASA will be hosting a series of proclamations and a special dinner and auction event on April 11.
Child Abuse Prevention Month is a time to raise awareness about the critical issue of child abuse and neglect, and to promote the importance of community involvement in safeguarding children. Throughout the month, CASA of Central Texas will be engaging with local leaders and community partners to emphasize the need for vigilance and proactive measures to prevent child abuse. For more information on Child Abuse Prevention visit texascasa.org/program- portal/resources/ child-abuse-prevention month.
Proclamations will be made by city and county officials across Central Texas, highlighting the significance of Child Abuse Prevention Month and recognizing the efforts of CASA, Child Protective Services, SJRC Texas I Belong, and Children’s Advocacy Centers who work tirelessly to support vulnerable children. These proclamations serve as a powerful reminder of peoples’ collective responsibility to protect the well-being of young citizens.
The Dinner and Auction event at 6 p.m. on April 11 promises to be an evening of inspiration and generosity. The event will be held at The Chandelier of Gruene, located at 1924 Bretzke Lane in New Braunfels. It will feature a seated dinner, live and silent auctions, and heartfelt stories from CASA supporters and those whose lives have been positively impacted by the programs. Funds raised during the event will directly support CASA’s mission to provide trained advocates for children in foster care.
“We invite everyone to join us in observing Child Abuse Prevention Month and to attend our dinner and auction event,” said Norma Blackwell, CEO of CASA of Central Texas. “Together, we can make a difference in the lives of children who need our support and advocacy.”
