A child entering foster care, or even just being removed and placed with family due to neglect or abuse, can be scary. The uncertainty weighs so heavy on their minds, all while they are dealing with the scars left behind from the trauma of the abuse and neglect that got them there in the first place.
A Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) not only gets to be these children's voices in court, fighting to keep them safe and fighting for permanency as soon as possible, but they also get to be a consistent shining light in their sometimes very dark world. We sit with them, we play games with them, we talk with them, we love on them. No matter how much their circumstances may change while their case is open in the court system, their CASA consistently has the ability to show them they have someone in their corner, that loves them so much they want to volunteer to hang out with them, and fight for them.
But these kids are waiting. I write this in tears because I've read these petitions. I know what these kids have endured. And we just don't have enough hours in a day to take them all. So...
WE NEED YOU!
Our next training starts April 8th, and the deadline to submit an application is this Thursday the 28th. If you've been feeling the nudge and keep holding yourself back... these kids RIGHT HERE are waiting on YOU! It will hands down, be the most rewarding thing you've ever done!
Shoot me your email address and I'll send you more details about training, and an application so YOU can start advocating for one of these kids waiting, SOON!
Morgan and Limestone County residents... WE NEED YOU!
Work full time? Have a family? So do most all of our volunteers! Scared? So was I at first. We STILL NEED YOU!
We. Need. You.
Ten4Twelve Campaign
The Ten4Twelve Campaign is Alabama CASA’s “call to action” to engage communities and citizens across the state to be a difference maker. Our plan is to activate ambassadors to make a $10 a month commitment for a year. Proceeds will yield funds for local programs to enable volunteer recruitment, training and child advocacy awareness education that ultimately assists in serving abused, abandoned and neglected children.
