Our History
Thirty one years ago, a small group of dedicated volunteers in Fort Bend County identified an enormous problem and would soon bring about vital change for children who were being abused. Children were languishing and falling through the cracks of the child welfare and legal systems and not getting the attention and help they so desperately needed. These visionary leaders responded by forming Child Advocates of Fort Bend in 1991 and opening a Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) Program to provide a voice for children in foster care and ensure that their “best interests” were being served. With one child and a few volunteers, they launched what would eventually become one of the most respected nonprofit agencies in the country providing comprehensive services for all children who are victims of abuse or neglect
