Round up in pursuit of safe homes for local children this June! Your donation will help to train and support new CASAs (Court Appointed Special Advocates) to advocate for local children.

The mission of CASA of Jackson County is to provide specially trained community volunteers to advocate for abused and neglected children in the pursuit of safe and permanent homes. CASA envisions all children and their families living in safety, free of addiction, domestic violence, and poverty so they can engage in our greater community in a healthy way that benefits all.

CASA of Jackson County will use the Positive Change funds to train and support new CASA volunteers to advocate for more than 800 local children annually. Previous Positive Change funds were used to support outreach and training of new volunteer CASAs. CASA had over 250 volunteers in 2020! The average length of service is 48 months and each CASA will serve an average of 3 children each per year. Once they train one CASA, they can serve up to 12 children.
