Mission Statement
Mission: Speaking up for abused and neglected children through Court Appointed Special Advocates, CASA volunteers. Vision: All Children dream, thrive and grow with a sense of belonging and empowerment to build a successful future.
Description
Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASAs) are trained volunteers who represent the best interests of children who have been removed from their homes due to abuse or neglect. CASA volunteers are appointed by a Judge and serve as the voice of the child in the courtroom. The CASA volunteer helps to ensure that the children are in safe, permanent and thriving environments. CASAs make independent recommendations to the court that include a child’s placement, school, and emotional well-being. The volunteer remains with that child throughout the life of a case. The CASA volunteer is one of the stable and caring adults that the child can turn to during a difficult time.
