     CASA for the Highland Lakes Area, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) charitable non-profit organization--the only organization in Blanco, Burnet, Lampasas, Llano, and San Saba counties that recruits and trains volunteers to provide direct services to children after they have been removed from their home by the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services due to abuse and/or neglect

CASA volunteers are the voice for these children in court and “speak up” for their best interest throughout the judicial process. 

To date, CASA for the Highland Lakes Area has served over 1300 child victims.  CASA has helped get children out of foster care in half the time it would ordinarily take— at a considerable savings to taxpayers.

Texas CASA has provided the following link to their website,

Steven Aubrey Spears

October 10, 1955 ~ August 16, 2010

With stunning sadness we announce Steve Spears’ death Monday,

 August 16, 2010 in an auto accident.

 

 Steve served fragile children as a Casework Supervisor at CASA for ten years.  His instincts and insights were profound, and all know the depth of his caring.  His loss creates a deep and painful void; please pray for his family.

When home is no longer safe for a child, and the child must enter the foster care system, a judge will appoint

a caring, adult volunteer called a CASA or court appointed special advocate.

The volunteer’s focus is on that child, giving hope and help in guiding the child to a safe, permanent home.
