CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates) held a celebration dinner on Thursday April 7 at the Brownwood Country Club to celebrate 10 years of service to the area.  The dinner was called “Justice Served” because local judges, attorneys, city officials, and law enforcement served drinks & refills to those in attendance.

In March 2001 CASA in the Heart of Texas began serving Children in Brown County, the program expanded into Mills County in August 2002 and then into Comanche County in September of 2003.

District Judge Steve Ellis was instrumental in starting a CASA program in Brown County and is often referred to as the father of CASA in the Heart of Texas.
