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. CASA VOLUNTEERS MONITOR CHILD WELL-BEING, ADVOCATES IN COURT FOR THEIR BEST INTERESTS, AND HELP OLDER YOUTH TRANSITION FROM FOSTER CARE INTO ADULTHOOD THROUGH OUR CASA FOSTERING FUTURES PROGRAM. IN 2021, 197 CASA VOLUNTEERS ADVOCATED FOR 296 CHILDREN. CASA VOLUNTEERS REPORTED THE WELLBEING OF 100% OF THESE CHILDREN AS FOLLOWS: OVER 89% WERE INVOLVED IN TRANSITION SUPPORT FOR YOUTH 14 AND OLDER, 71% PROVIDED HEALTH ADVOCACY, 85% PROVIDED EDUCATIONAL ADVOCACY AND 92% PROVIDED PERMANENCY AND SAFETY ADVOCACY. THE PANDEMIC ISOLATED CHILDREN FROM CARING ADULTS AND AS A RESULT WE SAW A DRAMATIC DROP IN CHILD ABUSE CASES. AS CASE FILING IS BEGINNING TO PICK UP, WE ARE SEEING AN INCREASE IN THE SEVERITY OF CONCERNS. 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.
