Be for the child.
“Every child custody decision is important and can have a lifetime’s worth of impact on a child. CASA Volunteers are there to comfort the child, to calm their fears, while at the same time, shining a light for the court on the child’s best interests.” Honorable Amanda H. Sammons, Campbell County Juvenile Court Judge
Children in foster care who have a CASA volunteer are more likely to succeed in school and adjust to change. And they’re half as likely to re-enter the foster care system later. As a volunteer, you can make all the difference for a child who has experienced abuse or neglect in your community. Be for the child. Won't you please get involved today?
News & Events
The spooky season is coming to an end before we know it, but that doesn’t mean we’re over October. Scary doesn’t always have to be bad. Instead, use these final weeks as a reminder to do some scary-good deeds and give back to your community.
In order to lead a truly altruistic life, it’s important to take stock of your own mental health, as well as those around you. There are a ton of free resources and tactics you can use to check-in and improve your mental clarity.
It’s hard to believe that another month has come and gone. As we enter October and inch closer to the holiday season, year-end giving and volunteering also ramps up.
