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; and | ||
WHEREAS, The mission of the Children's Advocacy Centers of | ||
Texas is to restore the lives of abused and neglected children; | ||
composed of 66 centers distributed across the state, this | ||
exemplary organization works with local communities and agencies | ||
to protect the right of children to be safe, secure, and free from | ||
violence; and | ||
WHEREAS, The centers bring together such disparate | ||
disciplines as law enforcement, child protective services, and | ||
mental and medical health services to create a collaborative | ||
approach to investigating and prosecuting child abuse; this | ||
cooperative effort results in the prompt and effective sharing of | ||
information and evidence and works to diminish the sometimes | ||
traumatic effects of the investigative process; and | ||
WHEREAS, The Children's Advocacy Centers of Texas provides | ||
young victims with the services they need and raises public | ||
awareness about the need to protect children; it is truly fitting | ||
that this outstanding organization be recognized for its many | ||
achievements; now, therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 83rd | ||
Legislature, hereby commend the Children's Advocacy Centers of | ||
Texas on their exceptional efforts to help ensure that abused | ||
children receive justice and extend best wishes for a memorable | ||
Legislative Day at the Capitol; and, be it further | ||
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for | ||
the organization as an expression of esteem from the Texas | ||
Senate. | ||
Nelson, Huffman | ||
