Darke County Court Appointed Special Advocates
Help Support CASA 

 

A real home. Somewhere safe and nurturing. Is it too much for a child to ask? Most kids can take it for granted. But for a child who has been abused or neglected, it can be almost beyond imagining.

Court Appointed Special Advocates – CASAs – are trained citizen volunteers who speak for the best interests of children thrust into the Juvenile Court System. Overburdened social workers, lawyers and judges look to the CASA volunteer for insights about the child and the family. These insights guide the search for the secure and loving home that every child deserves.

In Darke County, every abused or neglected child has a CASA. We are presently serving over 45 children.

While funding for the CASA director, Kay Robbins, and the office are provided by the Darke County Commissioners, the costs for training the volunteers are not. Our CASA Board raised funds to provide birthday presents for the children whose cases we oversee and we pay for training for our volunteers.

CASA Board members include Vicky Henderson, President, Dr. Laurie White, Vice President, Brad Bixler, Treasurer and Board members Don Bachman, Eric Brand, John Keller and Eileen Litchfield.

We hope you will support CASA with a tax-deductible donation. Please send your donations to Darke Co. CASA, % Juvenile Court, 300 Garst Ave., Greenville OH 45331. Anyone interested in becoming a CASA volunteer contact the CASA office at 547-9091.
