Welcome to Children's Voice: CASA, Inc.

Empowering Voices, Changing Futures

Children’s Voice: CASA, Inc. is a dedicated 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization in Douglas County, Georgia, with a mission to recruit, train, and support community volunteer advocates who stand up for the best interests of children experiencing foster care due to abuse or neglect. Empowered by the courts, our Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) volunteers are the critical advocates children need in courtrooms and communities, ensuring their rights and needs are met while they are in foster care.

CASA volunteer advocates remain committed to each child until they find a loving, permanent home. For many, their CASA volunteer advocate is one of the primary, stable, caring adults in their lives during uncertainty.

We’re here to raise awareness, inspire action, and create lasting, positive change for the children we serve. With your support, we can transform the lives of these children and give them the hope and future they deserve.

Please explore our website to learn more about how you can get involved, whether through donations, volunteering, advocacy, or simply spreading the word. Together, we can advocate and elevate the voices of children who need us most.

Thank you for visiting. We look forward to connecting with you and making a lasting difference—one child, and family at a time.

Spread Goodwill for Children

August 12 is International Youth Day, an awareness day designated by the United Nations. International Youth Day is to spread awareness of the cultural and legal issues of today’s youth. A new issue is emphasized each year on August 12. While the theme for 2015 is Youth Civic Engagement, the emphasized issue for youth in 2014 was mental health awareness. Below we break down the issue promoted by International Youth Day 2014:

Understand mental health—Although this once was a taboo and controversial subject, mental health has stepped into the forefront as a public issue. Depression, anxiety and many other mental health diseases are more common than believed and need an equal amount of treatment as any other disease.

Talk about mental health—Arm yourself with the correct lingo to talk about mental health issues. There are mental health diseases which are treated through medication and a therapist (not a shrink). Visit mentalhealth.gov for more information about mental health.

How to promote mental health—Diseases stem from body issues to substance-abuse to genetic psychotic disorders. Suicide is ranked as the number four most common death behind heart disease. If you see warning signs in a loved one: sadness, isolation, losing interest, make sure to seek help for them.

Together, we are

strong.
