Homeless little girl, by train track

Every Child’s Right.

A six-year-old girl rescued from an abusive father and bounced around to eight foster homes and six different schools over the course of two years. Four children separated from each other and placed in different locations after their mother was jailed.A young boy kicked out of his house, and forced to sleep on a cot in the hallway of a group home until he turned eighteen—when all his possessions were handed to him in a garbage bag as he was officially “aged out” of the system.

These are not isolated stories. They are everyday realities of children in the foster care and child welfare system. This is a failure of society’s fundamental obligation to protect the rights and needs of children.

The solution is a CASA volunteer—a specially trained advocate, appointed by a judge, who fights for the rights of children during the most vulnerable time of their young lives. A trusted adult empowered to ensure that each child is well cared for—able to find a safe, loving, permanent home.

But 80 percent of the children who need a CASA volunteer do not have one. That’s over 5,000 children in Alabama that don’t have the hope a CASA volunteer can offer.

We won’t rest until every child has a CASA volunteer. Join us! Help us reach every child!

 


 

 

CASA Volunteers change the lives of the children the serve. Watch this video of former CASA Children as they explain the difference their CASA volunteer made in their lives.
