Texas Loves Children Day each year raises awareness of the hidden child abuse epidemic and the shortage of resources needed to care for these children legally.
In 2013 over 66,000 children were confirmed as victims of abuse or neglect in Texas. Nearly 47,000 abused and neglected children were immersed in the legal system, relying on the courts to save them and protect them from further harm. Every child removed from a home after confirmed abuse or neglect has a court case in which a court-appointed attorney represents the child, and a judge decides critical aspects of the child’s future.
The system for handling these cases is overburdened and underfunded. The dedicated judges and attorneys face many obstacles, such as mounting caseloads, overburdened courts, and a severe lack of resources commonly available in other fields of law.
Texas Loves Children, the charity, helps legal professionals to ensure that court decisions provide the best outcome for each child.
