Brush Country CASA attends 2024 Texas CASA All Aboard Conference: Mapping Uncharted Waters

Brush Country CASA staff and volunteers had the incredible opportunity to attend the Texas CASA All Aboard Conference: Mapping Uncharted Waters. This annual event brought together advocates from across the state to explore innovative approaches and strategies in child advocacy.

We were fortunate to hear from a diverse lineup of inspiring speakers who shared their expertise on a range of topics, from effective advocacy techniques to the latest tools and resources available for our work. Their insights were not only enlightening but also ignited our passion for making a difference in the lives of the children and families we serve.

Throughout the conference, we engaged in interactive workshops that allowed us to practice new skills and brainstorm ways to implement these ideas within our organization. These hands-on experiences deepened our understanding of the challenges faced by children in the foster care system and emphasized the importance of our role as advocates.

This enriching experience has reinforced our commitment to serving our community with even greater effectiveness and compassion. We left the conference feeling energized and motivated to apply what we learned, enhancing our efforts to support children and families in need.

We are eager to integrate these valuable learnings into our day-to-day work, ensuring that we continue to advocate for the best interests of the children we represent. Together, we can create a lasting impact in our community and help foster a brighter future for those we serve.

A heartfelt thank you to Texas CASA, Inc. for organizing such a fantastic conference and for their ongoing support of child advocacy across Texas. We look forward to sharing our insights with our team and the community as we move forward in our mission.
