Mission Granbury: providing help, safety, self sufficiency and well-being  
Welcome!
         

Mission Granbury provides assistance to individuals and families in crisis through four core service areas and programs. These programs include the Ada Carey Center for Women & Children, CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates), Emergency Assistance Network, and the Victims Assistance Program.

  1. The Ada Carey Center for Women & Children provides comprehensive residential shelter services for women who are victims of family violence and their children. Care provided at the center includes crisis intervention, medical accompaniment, transportation, legal court accompaniment and advocacy in the civil and criminal justice systems, information and referral, education arrangements for children, help in obtaining community services, individual and group counseling, job search assistance, and life skills training.

  2. CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates) is made up of 34 well-trained volunteer advocates serving as a voice for abused and neglected children who are removed from their homes.

  3. The Emergency Assistance Network offers direct emergency financial assistance to families and individuals in crisis for basic needs such as rent, utilities, food, clothing, gasoline, prescriptions, medical needs, job-related expenses, and homelessness prevention services.

  4. The Victim’s Assistance Program offers advocacy and support for crime victims beginning at the scene of the crime and continuing for as long as needed.

  5. Primary Prevention aims to stop violence BEFORE it occurs and build safe, healthy communities. Ending violence & sexual violence requires comprehensive, community based initiatives that address systemic issues, attitudes, behaviors and norms that perpetuate violence.
