Small market. Big dreams and A whole lot of heart. ⚾️💙💛

There is just something unbelievably special about Wisconsin sports. The Brewers are chasing history + Wisconsin is showing up in a BIG way.

MLB’s smallest media market. Record-breaking postseason merchandise sales. A devoted fan base reminding everyone that there’s nothing small about our pride in our team.

And honestly? We love that. People coming together. Believing in something. Jumping in with their whole hearts. That spirit means something to us at CASA too.

We see the difference showing up can make. A volunteer who keeps coming back. Who listens. Who celebrates the little victories and speaks up when it matters. A consistent person in a child’s journey through the child welfare system.

You don’t have to have a big platform or a big budget to make a difference. Your time, your voice, and your willingness to care can mean so much.

But right now, we’re cheering on our Crew + celebrating a community with a whole lot of heart.

Let’s make history, Milwaukee!💛💙

💙 Sometimes the most meaningful journeys begin with a simple conversation.

A chance encounter on a playground. A shared story. A connection that inspires someone to make a difference.

At CASA of Marathon County, we know that the power of personal connection can change lives. Sometimes, all it takes is hearing someone’s story to realize that YOU have the power to change a child’s story.

Our CASA volunteers are everyday people who step up to do extraordinary things for children experiencing foster care. They offer consistency, compassion, and a voice when it matters most.

✨ You never know who you might inspire or whose life you might change.

💙 Meet Brian, the Newest Member of Our CASA Team! ❤️

We are excited to welcome Brian Firkus to CASA of Marathon County! Brian is joining us as an AmeriCorps member serving as our Fostering Futures Program Coordinator, where he will help grow programming for the older youth we serve while recruiting advocates who have a special interest in supporting teens as they prepare for adulthood.

Brian already knows CASA well, he is a CASA volunteer advocate and is currently pursuing his bachelor’s degree in Social Work with a second major in Sociology at UW-Stevens Point. His commitment to this work is deeply personal. Drawing from his own childhood experiences navigating the system, Brian understands firsthand the difference that one consistent, supportive adult can make in a young person's life.

And there is another side of Brian we can't wait to bring to our CASA community! Brian is a certified yoga teacher and sound healer with an impressive collection of crystal singing bowls, Tibetan bowls, chimes, a rain stick, shamanic drum, and handpan - with a gong still on his wish list! 😊

His commitment to self-care and wellness is a wonderful complement to the challenging and meaningful work our advocates do every day.

We are thrilled to have Brian bringing his experience, perspective, creativity, and passion to Fostering Futures and our CASA team.

Please join us in giving Brian a warm CASA welcome! 💙❤️

✨ Make a difference in a child’s life. Become a CASA Advocate.

CASA of Marathon County’s next Advocate Training begins the week of September 28, 2026!

Children in foster care need consistent, caring adults to stand beside them, advocate for their best interests, and make sure their voices are heard. As a CASA Advocate, you can be that person.

No special background is needed, just compassion, commitment, and a desire to help change a child’s story. ❤️

Meet Rachel! ❤️

We’re excited to welcome Rachel Camlek to the CASA team as our Community Engagement and Outreach Recruitment Coordinator!

Rachel’s CASA story began long before joining our staff, when she became a Court Appointed Special Advocate. Through that experience, she saw firsthand the difference one person can make through consistency by listening, researching, advocating, and making sure a child’s voice is heard.

Rachel brings a background in interior architecture and more than a decade of experience spanning project management, operations, sales, relationship building, and community involvement. She’s a creative thinker, a natural connector, and someone who loves bringing people and ideas together to turn possibility into meaningful action.

In her new role, Rachel will focus on building community partnerships, sharing CASA’s story, and expanding CASA’s reach into communities where children need advocates. Just as importantly, she’ll work to strengthen the community surrounding our current advocates by creating meaningful opportunities for them to connect, feel supported, and know how deeply their work is valued. For Rachel, it all comes back to connection: connecting people to purpose, advocates to community, and more children to someone who will stand beside them, advocate for their best interests, and make sure their voice is heard.

Outside of CASA, Rachel is happiest with her family- cheering from the sidelines at a youth sporting event, immersed in the arts, bringing another creative idea to life, or out exploring and searching for the next adventure.

We’re thrilled to have her energy, perspective, and passion for purposeful work as part of the CASA team. ❤️💙
