No Child Left Alone.

The mission of Child Advocates San Antonio (CASA) is to recruit, train, and supervise court-appointed volunteer Advocates who provide constancy for abused and neglected children and youth while advocating for services and placement in safe and permanent homes.

Hope doesn't walk alone, and neither should children in foster care.

Children come into foster care through no fault of their own. Through our community volunteers, Child Advocates San Antonio provides critical advocacy and services to these vulnerable, at-risk youth, ensuring that their needs and best interests are addressed. No other agency provides this unique, critical service in Bexar County.


“The best way to prevent child abuse is to stop the cycle. Child Advocates San Antonio gives these young victims what no agency can... someone to speak up for them and someone to trust.”

Judge Peter Sakai of the 225th District Court
