COVID-19 RESOURCES

CASA of the Sabine Neches Region is closely monitoring the COVID-19 situation and is regularly providing updates and resources to help CASA staff and volunteers effectively navigate the COVID-19 pandemic.
Additionally we are making the shift from in-person training to virtual training. 

THE IMPACT OF COVID-19 ON THE TEXAS CHILD WELFARE SYSTEM: CASA’S ESSENTIAL ROLE In the face of the turmoil and uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, CASA of the Sabine Neches Region continues to be a major source of stability for children and families in the Texas child welfare system. The need for CASA advocacy is heightened in this time of stress and crisis. Together, we are amplifying and adapting our work to advocate for the best interest of children and families during the rapid changes faced by the system. We are dedicated to exceptional advocacy for children and youth, building positive adult connections for them, supporting families as they seek reunification or other permanency outcomes, and finding the best ways to do so while everyone in the system navigates new challenges.  Read more: THE CRITICAL ISSUES & CASA’S RESPONSIVE ADVOCACY.

  • If you are sick, stay home except to access medical care. If you are able to take care of yourself, stay home. If you need to see your doctor, call ahead.
  • Avoid gatherings of more than 10 people and non-essential trips into public.
  • Cancel events of more than 10 people.
  • Limit close contact (at least six feet) with other people. Employers should allow alternative work options as much as possible.
WHY OUTBREAKS LIKE CORONAVIRUS SPREAD EXPONENTIALLY, & HOW TO “FLATTEN THE CURVE”The spread can be slowed, public health professionals say, if people practice “social distancing” by avoiding public spaces and generally limiting their movement….To understand why, it is instructive to simulate the spread of a fake disease through a population. Read…
