Heart of Missouri CASA

Heart of Missouri CASA Heart of Missouri CASA speaks up for children in the family courts who’ve been abused or neglected.

Heart of Missouri CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates) believes every child who has been abused or neglected deserves to have a dedicated advocate speaking up for their best interest in court, at school and in our community. To accomplish this, CASA educates and empowers community volunteers who ensure each child’s needs remain a priority in an overburdened child welfare system. When the state

steps in to protect a child’s safety because the people responsible for protecting them have not, a judge appoints a trained volunteer advocate to make independent and informed recommendations and help the judge decide what is best for the child. Volunteer advocates come from every walk of life, yet share a commitment to improving children’s lives, a willingness to learn, and an open mind towards life experiences different from their own. Volunteers complete an interview, a background check, and a 30-hour intensive training program including courtroom observation and are then sworn into their roles by a judge and assigned to a single child or a sibling group. CASA is not your typical volunteer opportunity… but we’re not looking for typical volunteers.

June 5 & 6 were wonderful days for children in foster care in Callaway County and the CASA volunteers who advocate for them!

A heartfelt thank you to Bud and Glenda Campbell for hosting the Annual Middle Creek Golf Tournament benefitting Heart of Missouri CASA at their beautiful residence and golf course. With gorgeous weather, a fun and challenging course, warm conversations, and Glenda’s amazing lunch, it was a truly special couple of days.

This tournament is such a meaningful family effort. Glenda plants the flowers, chooses the charity, and prepares the lunch. Bud preps the course and smokes the meat. Their daughter Cassie and her family, along with friends and loved ones, help make the event welcoming and memorable for every golfer.

We are so grateful to the Campbells, Bud's sister Brenda Loeffler for sharing CASA’s work with them, and everyone who golfed, donated, bought raffle tickets, or helped make the tournament a success.

Thank you for believing children in foster care deserve hope, stability, and a caring advocate by their side.
