A CASA volunteer is a consistent presence in a child’s life during the process of the case. I am for the child who has been taken away from his parents for his own safety. I am for the child who is in her fifth, sixth, or seventh foster home. I am for the child who has never been told he is loved, or smart, or strong. I am for the child who believes in her heart that no one cares. Lift a Childs Vo

Today, we had the privilege of witnessing three children be adopted into two permanent, safe, and loving homes.

Some days, this work is incredibly hard. Cases can take years, and there are moments filled with heartbreak and uncertainty. But today was one of those days that reminds us why we do it.

A special thank you to our volunteer advocates, Midge and Adam. Midge faithfully walked alongside this case for three difficult years, giving so much of herself to these children and families. Adam dedicated the past year and a half to helping ensure this child had a voice. Your commitment and compassion helped make today possible.

This is the silver lining. This is what makes it worth it.
