Our Mission
CASA of the Midlands provides best interest
advocacy for children under the protection of the court
Our Vision
Our vision is to ensure a safe, permanent, nurturing home for every child.
Back to school is a time for children and youth to be excited about their futures and to reconnect with routines, as they look forward to seeing their friends, teachers and staff, and return to their extra-curricular activities. For children experiencing turmoil and confusion in their lives, returning to school can provide much-needed stability and consistency.
The start of a new school year can also be a challenge for children in the child welfare system. Children and youth who have experienced abuse or neglect may be entering a new school this year with higher levels of stress and uncertainty.
As students return to school and build new routines, having a consistent adult to help navigate challenges and advocate for their best interests as a Court-Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) or Guardian ad Litem (GAL) volunteer is more important than ever. ~National CASA Association
