Thank you for your interest in the Bluebonnet Children's Center!
We are a non-profit organization that houses two (2) agencies that fight to prevent child abuse.
Bluebonnet Children’s Advocacy Center
The Bluebonnet CAC was formed in April 2002 by concerned citizens from Medina, Uvalde, and
Real Counties. The Bluebonnet CAC has two advocacy centers to better serve the community. Our first
and original location is in Hondo, Texas, the second location is in Uvalde, Texas. This provides much
needed services to abuse victims and their non-offending family members in the Medina, Uvalde, and
Real County areas. The BCAC also provides courtesy services to other counties including Frio, LaSalle,
Dimmit, Zavala, and Val Verde Counties. Law enforcement agencies from the three primary counties as
well as the 38th Judicial District Attorney and Child Protective Services have agreed to support and
utilize the Bluebonnet CAC for child abuse investigations. Without the ongoing support from all of
these agencies we could not effectively serve our community.
Tri-County CASA
Tri-County CASA has been serving Medina, Uvalde and Real Counties since 2001. The program
serves as Court Appointed Special Advocates for children that are in a foster setting. Tri-County CASA
relies heavily on the support of its volunteer that give their time to make a difference in a child’s life.
Cases involving CASA volunteers are usually cases where children have been removed from their
guardians care and placed in a foster placement or with relatives.Our volunteers visit with the children,
attend court hearings and other meeting involving the welfare of the child. Tri-County CASA volunteers
are extensively trained to make recommendations to the court whether it is in the best interest of the child
to return home.
