H.R. No. 1081

R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, Jennifer Dominguez has made a positive difference in
the lives of area children in need by serving as a Court Appointed
Special Advocate volunteer; and
WHEREAS, CASA is a nonprofit organization that relies on
trained volunteers to act as representatives for children who are
removed from their homes due to abuse or neglect; through the
program, advocates are assigned to gather information and make
recommendations that assist judges in reaching decisions that serve
the best interests of each child; and
WHEREAS, The dedicated men and women of CASA provide children
with a crucial voice in the often overburdened judicial and
protective services systems and ensure that they receive the
attention they need until they are placed in a permanent home; in
many cases, advocates offer a rare source of stability to young
people coping with a traumatic and uncertain time in their lives;
and
WHEREAS, The safety and well-being of children are of deep
concern to all citizens, and by devoting considerable time and
effort to fulfill a critical need in the community, Jennifer
Dominguez has set an admirable example to which others may aspire;
now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 84th Texas
Legislature hereby commend Jennifer Dominguez for serving as a
Court Appointed Special Advocate volunteer and extend to this
caring Texan sincere best wishes for the future; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for Jennifer Dominguez as an expression of high regard by
the Texas House of Representatives.
