The Austin Field Office, which opened in 1984, provides direct service to families, children and youth referred by the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services. We accept referrals from Austin, Travis County and the surrounding Central Texas counties.

We are part of Casey Family Programs’ Child and Family Services team, which also operates field offices in Arizona, California, Idaho and Washington, all focused on the urgent and relentless pursuit of securing lifelong, permanent family connections for every child.

We partner and collaborate with the local child welfare agency and broader community-based organizations to improve and support effective child and family well-being systems.

In partnership with DFPS staff, we provide clinical case management and supportive services to youth, young adults and caregivers. We provide direct resources and coordination with other community programs (mental health, youth enrichment programs, youth mentor programs and/or educational supports) as needed. We serve youth in out-of-home care as well as young adults who have experienced foster care and families at risk of entry or re-entry into the foster care system.
