COURT APPOINTED SPECIAL ADVOCATES FOR CHILDREN

Imagine how it would feel to be told that your mom isn't "safe" to be around. Imagine being pulled away from your friends and everything else you've ever known. Imagine walking into a room full of people dressed in suits, talking about what should happen to you next. Then, imagine someone standing up for you and saying the exact words you want to say about your situation, but don't know how, because you are only 7 years old. CASA exists to be that someone, so that no child has to face the foster care system alone.
