HELP BRING CASA HOME
Help restore the spaces where children and families find connection, support, and hope.
Flood damage forced Hill Country CASA from its offices and closed the Peterson Visitation Center—disrupting spaces used for family visits, confidential advocacy, community collaboration, and critical support for children and families. Together, we can bring CASA home.Our 2026-2027 goal: $50,000
CASA has always meant home.
CASA means Court Appointed Special Advocates for Children. In Spanish, casa means home. Both meanings are at the heart of our work. Hill Country CASA advocates for children in foster care and helps move them toward what every child deserves: a safe, secure, permanent home where they can thrive. Now, we are asking our community to help restore the home that makes so much of this work possible, for us, for community children and families, and for our partner organizations.BEFORE THE FLOOD
AFTER THE FLOOD
These rooms were created to feel safe, private, and welcoming, not institutional. Restoring them means restoring places where children can spend meaningful time with family, adults can have difficult conversations in confidence, and community partners can provide support when and where it’s needed.

A central place for case coordination, training, and community collaboration
