Judge Aurora Martinez Jones

I'm grateful and excited to be sworn in for my 2nd term as the 126th District Court Judge. Thank you to all those who have been a part of my journey!

Thank you, Travis County, for re-electing me to serve as the 126th District Court Judge. It has been an honor and I look forward to continued diligent work serving our community.

During Domestic Violence Awareness Month, I'm proud to share that my article on Child Well-Being and the Parent-Child Relationship when Parents Experience Domestic Violence has been published in the Fall 2024 issue of the ABA Section of Family Law's "Family Advocate" magazine. I'm appreciative of being able to have this platform to advocate for healthy and safe families.

I'm truly honored to be recognized nationally as a changemaker for children and families! I'm proud to have received a Casey Excellence for Children Leadership Award this week, commending my efforts to make the child welfare system more equitable and anti-racist. I've been so privileged to collaborate with Casey Family Programs, the nation’s largest operating foundation dedicated to safely reducing the need for foster care and building Communities of Hope for children and families. I'm excited to continue this work with Casey nationally, with our Amazing Texas team, and with the fabulous folks in our Austin field office. Thanks to everyone who have partnered with me for innovation, change, and hope in our community ❤️
