Madison County, Indiana has over 1200 children with substantiated cases of abuse or neglect. Over 400 of these children are waiting for a Court Appointed Advocate to be their voice in decisions about their future. East Central Indiana CASA recruits, trains and supervises volunteers to be Court Appointed Special Advocates. These child advocates are the voice in court for abused and neglected children, ages infant to age 18. They thoroughly examine a child’s case and make recommendations to the Judge on what is in the best interest of the child. The goal of CASA is to get the child into a safe and permanent home as quickly as possible, where they can thrive.
