Describe the Organization's Program Activity:
Part 3 - Line 4a
THE COURT APPOINTED SPECIAL ADVOCATE (CASA) PROGRAM PAIRS TRAINED VOLUNTEERS WITH CHILDREN WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED ABUSE OR NEGLECT.

THE PANDEMIC ISOLATED CHILDREN FROM CARING ADULTS AND AS A RESULT WE SAW A DRAMATIC DROP IN CHILD ABUSE CASES.

IN 2021, 101 VOLUNTEERS WERE SWORN IN AND SUPPORTED A HYBRID OF VIRTUAL AND IN- PERSON TRAININGS AND VISITS BETWEEN CASA AND THE KIDS ON THEIR CASES. DESPITE THE EVER CHANGING CIRCUMSTANCES, THE QUALITY OF ADVOCACY FOR CHILDREN AND FAMILIES NEVER WAVERED.
