Mission

CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates) of Collin County speaks up for children who have been abused or neglected by empowering the community to volunteer as advocates for them in the court system. When the state steps in to protect a child's safety, a judge appoints a trained CASA volunteer to make independent and informed recommendations in the child's best interest.CASA of Collin County trains and supervises these volunteers for the entirety of the child's case, serving 100% of court-appointed child welfare cases. In the past five years, we have served a total of 865 unduplicated children with the support of 405 volunteer advocates.For children in foster care, their CASA volunteer advocate is a lifeline, providing consistency in a young life that has been disrupted by trauma, change, and uncertainty. CASA advocates see the promise of a better future for each child rather than the sum of their unfortunate circumstances.CASA of Collin County staff and volunteers believe that no child

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
