SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 23
WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is pleased to join
Texans across the state in celebrating Children's Advocacy Centers
of Texas Legislative Day at the Capitol, on January 27, 2015; and
WHEREAS, Children's Advocacy Centers of Texas,
Incorporated, is a nonprofit organization dedicated to the goal
of restoring the lives of abused and neglected children; founded
with a charter membership of 13 local centers, it now has a
membership of 68 centers which are located across the state; and
WHEREAS, The organization offers a wide variety of
services to local centers, including training programs, site
visits, a case tracking system, and technical assistance; and
WHEREAS, The 68 centers serve some 40,000 children each
year; the multidisciplinary teams work closely with law
enforcement officials and Department of Family and Protective
Services representatives to coordinate joint investigations into
abuse and to help victims receive the services they need to heal; and
WHEREAS, Child abuse is an issue that touches all Texans,
and it is truly fitting that the Children's Advocacy Centers of
Texas receive recognition for the organization's outstanding
work in protecting the state's most vulnerable population; now,
therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 84th
Legislature, hereby commend the Children's Advocacy Centers of
Texas, Incorporated, on its efforts to ensure that abused and
neglected children receive justice and extend to all associated

the Children's Advocacy Centers of Texas as an expression of
esteem from the Texas Senate.
