Right now, just under 400 Champaign County children are in foster care due to abuse or neglect. As a result,courts are required to make very difficult decisions about their futures.Our trained volunteers, with the help of our staff and attorneys, focus on their situations and advocate for their best interests in court and in the community.CASA volunteers and staff are the only ones in the foster care system who concentrate solely on the needs of the kids, giving them the opportunity for hope, stability, and a safe and permanent home.
