CHANGE A CHILD’S STORY™

When a child enters the court system, they need someone who will stand up for them. CASA volunteers provide the consistent voice and support that helps guide children toward a safer, brighter future.

Why CASA?

Nearly 700,000 children experience abuse or neglect each year. Instead of playing with neighbors and making happy family memories, they’re adjusting to new foster homes and transitioning to new schools. That’s a heavy burden for a child to carry. With a Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) volunteer dedicated to their case, America’s most vulnerable children will have someone speaking up for their best interests. With your support, more children will have the opportunity to thrive in a safe and loving home.

Change a Child's Story

At CASA of Vermilion County and Edgar County, we have a vision to provide a trained volunteer advocate for every child in both counties dependency court system who has experienced abuse and neglect. You can learn more about the program at the link below.
