Your donation to the Children’s Advocacy Center provides critical services to children and families who have experienced abuse, while also working towards preventing future abuse and neglect.

How your donation makes a difference:

  • Provides trauma-informed therapy, medical exams, forensic interviews, family advocacy, and case reviews—all at no cost to families.

  • Supports resources for families such as therapy groups, parenting classes, and community referrals.

  • Provides essential aid like food, clothing, household items, toiletries, gifts, and transportation assistance to families facing financial hardship due to abuse or trauma.

  • Helps train professionals (law enforcement, medical staff, educators, and child welfare workers) to improve responses to child abuse and neglect.

  • Strengthens community advocacy and prevention efforts to protect children and prevent abuse long-term.

We can’t change the past in the lives of our clients, but YOU can certainly help change their future. Did you know that in 2025:

  • CAC held 3,252 Therapy Sessions.

  • 317 children were interviewed

  • 3,000+ Holly Jolly gifts were provided to client families

  • 2,770 Community Members received CAC training and education

  • “The staff were incredibly helpful in explaining and hearing my concerns for my child. They were kind and thoughtful in the meeting today with us. I think CAC made everything as comfortable as possible for us.”

  • “I very much appreciate and respect the Bastrop CAC Team; they are the very best I have worked with, and I have worked with more than 5 other centers; nobody is even close.”

    —Current Multidisciplinary Team Member

  • “Every child deserves to feel safe, loved, and heard. When a child has experienced trauma or abuse, having someone stand beside them can make all the difference. The Children’s Advocacy Center gives children hope, support, and a path toward healing when they need it most.”

    —Chandra Williams, CAC Supporter
