CASA for Children graduated 15 new CASA volunteers this week, adding to the number of community members who are speaking up for abused and neglected children in the court system.
CASA volunteers are a powerful voice for a child in need. Volunteers work directly with children and families to ensure the children's needs are met for long-term safety and success.
Volunteers act as direct advocates for abused and neglected children, ensuring they don't slip through the cracks of the child welfare system.
These volunteers attended a 30-hour in-depth training on how to be the voice for abused and neglected children, ensuring they find safe, loving, and permanent homes.
CASA is in need of more great advocates like these men and women. For more information contact Jenny Crosby at 918-686-8199 or email jenny@casaok.org. You can make a difference in the life of a child. Be their voice. Be their CASA.
