Mission Statement
The mission of CASA of Robertson County is to advocate for the best interest of the abused/neglected children appointed to us through Juvenile Court.
Using trained volunteers, court appointed special advocates, to investigate all aspects of the child's circumstances to determine the best possible solution for the child.
Through this process we will reduce the amount of time the child spends in foster care and ensure they are placed in safe and permanent homes.
Description
CASA of Robertson County is governed by a Board of Directors that represents the communities of Robertson County.
Our goal is to be proactive in working with all communities by having a committee member in each school, chamber of commerce, and civic organization.
By building a network of individuals to promote awareness we will not only build our volunteer group we will be aware of the needs in each community.
While the CASA Volunteer will be the eyes and ears of the Judge and the mouth of the child, the network we build will be the support system to promote the best interest of all children in Robertson County.
