Mission Statement
The mission of CASA is to speak for the best interests of abused and neglected children in the courts. We promote and support quality volunteer representation for children to provide each child a safe, permanent, nurturing home.
Description
Every year more than half a million abused and neglected children are in need of safe, permanent, nurturing homes. That's where CASA steps in. CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates) was created in 1977 to make sure the abuse and neglect these children originally suffered at home doesn't continue as abuse and neglect at the hands of the system. As trained advocates, CASA volunteers are appointed by judges to be a voice for these children in court. The result is that a child is placed into a safe, loving home where he/she can thrive. It is the CASA vision to provide a volunteer for each and every abused and neglected child who needs one.

CASA is such a wonderful way to give back to the community. The foster care process is a terrifying time in the life of a child. It is our job to ensure that they go to safe, permanent homes and their needs are put first. I have never been so passionate about a cause as I am about this one. The staff is incredibly helpful and I am constantly learning new things about the Juvenile Justice system. I highly recomend this organization.
