In 2018 in Texas
211 children died from abuse or neglect.
There were 66,382 confirmed victims of child abuse or neglect.
Almost every 8 minutes, a child became a victim of abuse or neglect.
20,685 children were removed from home due to abuse or neglect.
That’s 56 children entering the foster care system each day.
A total of 52,397 children were in the child protection system.
10,856 CASA volunteers advocated for 30,136 children in care in Fiscal Year 2018 – this still leaves too many children without a dedicated volunteer to speak up for their needs while in care.
