There's No Place Like Hope for the Holidays
Dear CASA Supporters,

Many of us look forward to spending time with our families at the holidays, but for children and youth under court protection who have experienced the trauma of abuse or neglect, the holidays can be an extremely difficult time of year.

The effects of abuse or neglect can have far-reaching and long-lasting consequences, and some children in foster care struggle while others thrive. A key difference is resilience—the ability to adapt and recover after a traumatic event.

Having a caring adult to rely on is a key component to building resilience and hope for a brighter future. For many of the children we serve, their CASA volunteer is that person. 

Thank you for considering an end of year gift in support of CASA child advocacy. Your generosity gift of hope is greatly appreciated and makes a lasting impact!

Because of your support, CASA volunteers will continue to be the consistent adults for these children and youth during the holidays and as long as it takes until the court case is closed and they are safe and thriving in permanent homes.

Together, we are changing stories!

With gratitude,

Kristin Jacobs

Executive Director
