 Our goal is to help an additional 100,000 children beyond those we already serve. This is just one step along the way to providing a CASA volunteer for every child who needs one. It is a very ambitious goal, and we cannot do it alone. But we have a plan to get there—by:
- Evaluating our organizational structure and staffing to ensure that we are set up in the most efficient and effective way possible.
- Targeting promotional efforts in areas of the country where the need is the greatest and among groups of individuals most likely to volunteer.
- Focusing our efforts to recruit and retain volunteers of color.
- Unifying the power of the CASA network. We want to make our corps of 59,000+ advocates feel more connected with each other and with National CASA, which will help with retention, recruitment, awareness and development throughout the country.
- Implementing a fundraising plan that will enable us to initiate and continue the projects outlined above.

Your contribution ensures NO CHILD IS FORGOTTEN
We believe that each abused or neglected child deserves to have someone who is trained to speak up for them and push for the best possible outcome to a terrible situation. The work and the support come from the heart. But in these uncertain economic times, as each of us examines our expenditures, supporting National CASA is a wise and modest investment.

CASA is the only volunteer organization that empowers everyday citizens as officers of the court. In an overburdened social welfare system, abused and neglected children often slip through the cracks among hundreds of current cases. CASA volunteers change that. Appointed by judges, CASA volunteers typically handle just one case at a time—and commit to staying on that case until the child is placed in a safe, permanent home.
