Recognizing March 27, 2025, as CASA Day at the State Capitol.

Texas House Resolution 612 designates March 27, 2025, as CASA Day at the State Capitol. This day is meant to honor and recognize the work of Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) who support children in the foster care system.

Supporters of HR612 would highlight the importance of CASA volunteers in advocating for vulnerable children, emphasizing their role in ensuring that these children receive the support and care they need. Celebrating CASA Day at the Capitol raises awareness about the challenges faced by foster children and the critical services provided by CASA.

Critics might argue that while recognizing CASA is important, such resolutions do not address the underlying systemic issues within the foster care system that need urgent reform. They may view CASA Day as a symbolic gesture that distracts from the need for more substantial legislative action to improve the lives of foster children.
