CASA-Voices for Children's mission is to ensure the best outcome and future for children/youth who have experienced abuse and/or neglect in Benton & Lincoln Counties and beyond by training volunteers to provide advocacy, life skills, and expanding services to help kids thrive.
CASA, Court Appointed Special Advocates, is a unique program; there are no other organizations that provide advocacy on behalf of children who are within the child welfare system. CASA is built on the foundation of everyday people contributing to make a difference in an abused child’s life.
Every day, judges decide the futures of children/youth who have experienced abuse or neglect who are within the child welfare system - a system that is overburdened and unable to adequately focus on the needs of each child/youth.
When a child who has been abused and neglected is going through the system, a CASA advocate is tirelessly working to guide them through safely, quickly, and effectively. Without the powerful voice of an advocate, children too often return to unsafe homes or languish in long-term foster care, risking future abuse or neglect.
