Each February, Child Advocates of Fort Bend celebrates its incredible volunteers with a beautiful dinner and tribute.  Volunteers are recognized with special awards including CASA Volunteer of the Year, CAC Volunteer of the Year, Event Volunteer of the Year, Lifetime Achievement Award and many others.  The capstone of the evening is the Child Advocates of Fort Bend’s Volunteer of the Year.  All volunteers are recognized for their hours and years of service.  Always a wonderful evening, join us this year to pay tribute to those special everyday heroes who do so much to change the lives of children who have been abused and neglected.
