Working for the children

Every year in Lucas County, approximately 4,000 allegations of child abuse and neglect are investigated. In almost one quarter of those cases, volunteers of the Lucas County CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates) program, one of the nation’s oldest and most respected CASA programs, lend a caring hand. Lucas County CASA volunteers are everyday citizens trained to work for the juvenile court judges to help abused and neglected children find safe and permanent homes. If you’re interested in becoming one of these volunteers, attend the CASA Community and Volunteer Information Meeting and learn to become an advocate for child victims. 5:30-6:30pm. Wednesday, November 29.
