Welcome to Casey's Place!

Through a variety of animal-assisted activities and Christian mentorship, Casey's Place stands in the gap and helps parents, caregivers and grandparents raise up leaders of tomorrow.
Current Events
We love being that place "Where a kid can be a kid!"
Our goal at Casey's Place is to encourage and equip young people to believe in themselves and help them to discover their self-worth by helping them to understand their circumstances do not determine their destiny.
"Circumstances" might include those who experience learning differences (such as ADD and ADHD), are in single-parent homes or who live with grandparents / alternate caregivers, or those suffering as a result of grief, abuse and/or emotional trauma (like divorce). We partner with domestic violence shelters, children in foster care and juvenile probation to provide camps free of charge for youth in their programs; thriving on standing in the gap helping parents, caregivers, and grandparents raise up leaders of tomorrow.
Did you know that 20 minutes with an animal is equivalent to a dose of ADD/ADHD medication? Our animal-assisted activities just might be what you've been looking for!

Testimonials...
Casey’s Place has been so wonderful teaching our kids how to care for animals and being social to peers of the same age in the community. As soon as the kids leave Casey’s Place they are asking “when are we going back?” Casey’s Place plays a big role in the growth of our kids!
David Asbill Director Kaufman County Children's Emergency Shelter I can’t say enough about Casey’s place and the value their services bring to our program. The children in our program are able to attend Casey’s Place at no cost during holiday breaks and summer. They love the outdoor play and time with animals many they’ve never been around. Their program gives these children a sense of empowerment and makes it possible for the women we serve to continue working or attend class. Thank you to everyone who makes Casey’s Place a reality for children in need. Melanie Shackelford Executive Director Celebrate Forever Families Executive Director |

We are forever grateful that they see the needs of our kids and offer a safe and loving place during summer months and during off times of the school district term. Thanks for opening your home to the needs of Kaufman County.
