(Court Appointed Special Advocate) recruits volunteers to represent abused/neglected children of EKY.

Our mission is to promote and advocate for children who have experienced dependency, neglect, and abuse, and to provide trained community volunteers to represent the safety and best interest of such children in the court system, with the goal of guiding them to safe, permanent, and loving homes. We serve the children of seven counties in Eastern Kentucky which include: Perry, Knott, Leslie, Letcher, Pike, Floyd & Magoffin.

Who was the adult who made a difference in your life growing up?

Whether it was a teacher, coach, grandparent, neighbor, or friend, tell us about them in the comments. 💙

The positive influence of one caring adult can change the trajectory of a child's life...and that's exactly why CASA volunteers matter.

Court lasts minutes.
A child lives with the outcome every day after.

Some children carry more than homework in their backpacks.

They carry uncertainty.
Fear.
Trauma.
Questions no child should have to ask.

CASA volunteers help carry some of that weight by standing beside children through difficult times. Learn how to help by visiting www.casaofappalachianmtns.org

Every child deserves someone in their corner. 💙

Our advocates are everyday community members who speak up for children in foster care. Our advocates are a consistent, caring presence during uncertain times, ensuring each child’s voice is heard and their needs are not overlooked.
