SCOPE OF WORK
PROGRAM ABSTRACT
CASA of Tarrant County is a volunteer -based program advocating for the safety,
permanency, and healing of abused and neglected children. CASA recruits, trains, and
supervises community members to become volunteer advocates for children during their
time in foster care. By forming a relationship with the child and the supportive adults in
the child's life, the CASA volunteer learns about the child's unique needs and strengths.
They help the child obtain therapeutic services the child needs to heal from their abuse
while engaging and empowering the child's social support system to surround the child
with social support. Over the course of a twelve-month court case, the CASA volunteer
assesses if it would be in the child's best interest to return home, be placed with a relative,
or be adopted. The CASA then provides the judge with a recommendation regarding what
kind of permanent home would be in the child's best interests. They are one of the most
consistent sources of support and stability for the child during their difficult and uncertain
time in care, and they advocate that all decisions are made to meet the needs of the whole
child.
North Texas had the highest number of children aging out of foster care in 2016 and
2017, meaning these children leave foster care when they become adults without a
permanent family. Youth who age -out of foster care are incredibly at -risk for future
criminal activity: in fact, 50% of youth who age out of foster care are incarcerated by age
23 and are more at -risk to commit violent crimes 18.20• To combat this, in 2017 CASA
started using Collaborative Family Engagement (CFE), a research -based program
designed to increase and strengthen a child's social capital, creating a large network of
lifelong support for the child while maintaining existing family relationships and
community connections. CFE's goal is to improve permanency outcomes for children in
foster care and reduce the number of children aging out of foster care which in tum helps
prevent their involvement in the criminal justice system. After only one year, CASA is
seeing a difference in permanency outcomes for children: in 2017, 95% of CASA's cases
ended in permanency (i.e. the child was returned home, placed with relatives, or adopted)
compared to 85% in 2016, a 10% increase in one year. Despite a growing population and
migration to cities, Tarrant County was .the only urban area in Texas that experienced a
decrease in the number of children who aged out of foster care from 2016 to 2017 (83
children in 2016; 79 children in 2017)5. CASA's use of CFE has an immediate effect: in
2017, Tarrant County children with CASAs were in foster care on average 19 months
compared to the county wide average of 21 months, saving taxpayers over $1,000,000 in
foster care payments5. Children directly served by 2017 CCPD funding are living,
breathing examples of these larger impacts. Our goal this year was to serve 45 children,
and since 10/01/2017, 40 children have received CFE services. These children have had
increases in the number of committed adults in their lives, and those adults have been
FY 2019 Community Based Program
CASA of Tarrant County, Inc. — Exhibit A Page 14 of 25
maintained for ongoing support. Of the four children whose cases closed, 100% found
permanency and three of them were in care only 18 months, three fewer months than the
average stay. Several children were three reading levels behind and after a few months of
literacy and educational advocacy have improved by two -grade levels. All FYI 8 CCPD
goals are on track to being met or surpassed by 9/30/18. Our community's children need
interventions that work, and with support from CCPD, CASA of Tarrant County can
create real change in the lives of Fort Worth foster children. Due to the success of CASA
of Tarrant County and the CFE intervention, CASA of Tarrant County has been asked by
Texas CASA and UT Austin to serve 270% more children with the CFE intervention in
2018. This program is proven and effective at finding permanency for foster children
which is directly correlated with reducing future criminal activity. CASA of Tarrant
County respectfully requests a grant of $51,675 to cover the Child Advocacy Specialist
position who will supervise and manage a team of volunteers to serve 45 children in
fiscal year 2018. Because of Collaborative Family Engagement, Tarrant County children
who were destined to age out of foster care are now leaving foster care, living with
engaged and committed family, and are surrounded by a larger and empowered support
system. By ensuring the child finds permanency as efficiently as possible through
Collaborative Family Engagement, CASA changes the child's entire life trajectory,
helping them avoid being both the victim and later perpetrator of future pain and
instability. With help from the City of Fort Worth, CASA can find family for Fort Worth
foster children and in tum, prevent future criminality associated with childhood isolation
and aging -out of foster care.

Please attach a detailed budget narrative that explains the need for all proposed
expenditures by individual item. The budget narrative should clearly explain how
funds will be used and why expenditures are necessary for successful
implementation of your program. Please explain how costs are calculated.
A. Direct —Personnel
Funding from CCPD in $41,340 would cover the direct personnel salary of the
Child Advocacy Specialist (formerly called Casework Supervisor), the most
crucial staffing piece of the Collaborative Family Engagement intervention.
Each Child Advocacy Specialist maintains a caseload of approximately 25
volunteers at a time. Those volunteers each serve 1 (i.e. a child abuse court case;
siblings are considered one case) in a 12 -month period, and with 25 volunteers,
Child Advocacy Specialists typically serve at least 25 cases during a 12 -month
period. Each case averages 1.75 children per case. 25 cases multiplied by 1.75
children totals to approximately 45 children served by Child Advocacy
Specialists.
The starting salary for a Child Advocacy Specialist is $41,340. Fort Worth CCPD
will cover salary and fringe for a Child Advocacy Specialist only and will not go
towards any overhead costs. 100% of funding will go towards program services,
specifically the implementation of CFE and advocacy services. Child Advocacy
Specialists provide mentoring, coaching, and supervision of volunteers advocating
for Fort Worth children. This position ensures volunteer compliance with the
agency's minimum standards of expectation, including two visits with the child per
month, as well as contact with the child's attorney, observed CPS visits, and contact
with teachers, school counselors, therapists and/or daycare as needed.
Child Advocacy Specialists are trained in CFE and will be guiding volunteers as they
implement the CFE program on their cases. Child Advocacy Specialists work very
closely with volunteers, reviewing all CFE tools and attending meetings when a
volunteer is unavailable. Volunteers are a cost-efficient way for CASA to implement
the CFE intervention, and Child Advocacy Specialists are the critical piece ensuring
service delivery. Naomi Sawyer was the Child Advocacy Specialist on the 201712018
CCPD grant to CASA, and she is well versed in reporting requirements. She will
serve on the 201812019 CCPD grant if awarded.
B. Direct — Fringe: $10,335 will go towards health insurance, retirement, and
taxes for Child Advocacy Specialist Naomi Sawyer.
