National CASA urges legilators to consider the impacts on children when they address immigration legislation
When Antoinette Knape’s youngest child went off to college, she looked for a volunteer opportunity that would allow her to make a difference in the community. She decided to become a CASA volunteer, but she couldn’t foresee how indispensable she would be come to the children she serves.
An ideal candidate will be have a bachelor’s degree in social work, family studies, or criminal justice and be passionate about the welfare of abused and neglected children.
After seeing a story in the news about a young boy being abused by his adoptive parents, Sigrid Valk-Feeney turned her outrage into a drive to help. She was so upset over that story, that she started searching for an organization that specifically addressed helping kids in the foster care system. That’s when she found CASA.
