Texas Child Welfare Funders Sponsors TexProtects Legislative Update Tour

Philanthropy Southwest's affinity group, Texas Child Welfare Funders, is sponsoring seven virtual educational events for funders this fall that will cover child welfare legislative updates and the dire shortage of foster beds in Texas right now. TexProtects will cover both topics and more in its Texas Tour, which will address issues regionally. All times are CST. 

  • Austin - November 9, 2021 2:00 pm - 3:30 pm 
    • TexProtects and Any Baby Can have partnered together to review what happened as it relates to child protection this past legislative session and to hear from various stakeholders in your community about the work that still needs to be done during the interim to ensure Texas families are supported and children are safe. We look forward to your participation as we have breakout discussions on how we can best utilize our resources both before and after families experience a crisis. Some of the topics we plan to cover include: smart strategies to prevent child abuse and neglect; what can be done to address the state’s foster care capacity crisis; and how we can truly transform this system to better serve children and families.

      Who is Any Baby Can and why we partnered with them: TexProtects is honored to partner with Any Baby Can, as they serve children and families in the Central Texas area. Any Baby Can partners with families to build stability, develop skills, and unlock each child’s full potential. They believe that every child deserves a strong and healthy family and offer a full service of effective program models that focus on mental, physical, and psychological health.
