Child Protective Services Board

Travis County Children's Protective Services Board

The Travis County Children's Protective Services Board is comprised of up to 15 members appointed by the Travis County Commissioners for three year terms. Members volunteer their time and talents to advocate for the protection and well-being of those Travis County children who are in the care of the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services (TDFPS) Child Protective Services Division.

Our mission is to

  • provide financial support for the special needs of children in the care of TDFPS
  • educate our community about child abuse and neglect issues
  • support and provide a liaison between Travis County Child Protective Services workers and the public by increasing our community's awareness of child welfare program policies and needs.

As a county Children's Protective Services Board, we are mandated by statute to provide coordinated state and local public welfare services for children and their families and for the coordinated use of federal, state, and local funds for these services.
