Genesee County CASA for Children is a private, non-profit organization established in 1999 due to an alarming increase in the number of abused and neglected children living within the county. Our program is part of the National CASA movement that first began in 1977 and now has programs in 49 states, along with the District of Columbia. Our mission is to provide trained community volunteers to advocate for the best interest of those children who come to the attention of Family Court as a result of abuse or neglect. The CASA program makes a positive impact in the lives of these children by training volunteers to advocate on behalf of their best interest in family court. CASA volunteers help to secure safe, permanent homes, where youth can thrive in the shortest amount of time as possible.
