Summer might be a break from school, but it’s not a break from advocacy. CASA volunteers continue showing up for children in foster care: through the transitions, the heat, and the unknowns. Be the consistency a child needs this summer.

At CASA, we believe children do best when they can safely remain with or return to their families, and when that’s not possible, we advocate for the next best path to permanency.

#ReunificationMonth #ChangeAChildsStory

[CASA of the 18th JDC @CASA18JDC]

Last year, 1,141 children served by CASA in Louisiana were reunified with their biological families. These reunifications represent not just numbers, but real stories of resilience, healing, and hope.

[CASA of the 18th JDC @CASA18JDC]

With guidance from CASA volunteers, many families are able to access the support they need to create safe, nurturing environments for their children to return home. Join us in celebrating National Reunification Month and help more families write their next chapter together.

CASA volunteers work to ensure youth have advocates who support their goals, encourage stability, and help connect them to critical resources as they transition into adulthood. Learn more at https://t.co/00VJ5zLvlN.

[CASA of the 18th JDC @CASA18JDC]

For youth aging out of foster care, turning 18 can come with uncertainty about housing, employment, education, and long-term support. Young people who leave foster care without permanent connections are at a greater risk for homelessness and unemployment.

Please help us wish our Board Member Kylee Champagne a very happy birthday! We hope you have a wonderful day! 🥳🎉

Children in foster care need compassionate adults who are willing to speak up for their best interests. We're looking for dedicated volunteers to help advocate for children who have experienced abuse or neglect.

CASA's core model is rooted in the belief that every child deserves a chance to reach their full potential. By advocating for their best interests in court, we strive to create positive outcomes for children in foster care, helping them build a brighter future beyond the system.
