We achieve this goal by strengthening California's network of local CASA programs and advocating for child welfare policy and practice. false false 1266781 California CASA Association supports the development, growth, and continuation ofprograms that recruit and train volunteers to advocate for abused and neglectedchildren throughout California. CASA volunteers establish stable supportive relationships with children in the foster care system, getting to know their unique history and making informed recommendations to the courts. California CASA Association improves the scope, quality, and impact of the CASA network by: a) strengthening local CASA programs with technical assistance, quality training, and resources, b) working in partnership with California Judicial Councilto ensure that local CASA programs are in compliance with State and NationalStandards, c) communicating the CASA perspective and advocating for child welfare policies, and d) identifying and pursuing valuable strategic alliances that leverage and/or expand CASA program resources statewide. When California CASA Association was founded, only a handful of CASA programs existed. Today, with California CASA support and leadership, nearly every county in the state is served by a local CASA program. This translates to a network of 44 CASA programs and 8,798 volunteer advocates serving over 14,150 foster children in 51 counties throughout the state. 1266781 true true false true false false false false false false false false false false false true true false false true false false false false false false false true false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 13 0 true 12 true false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 17 17 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true true false CA X X X X CA CASA 5106638440 3525 Del Mar Heights Rd 243 San Diego CA 921302122 Sharon M Lawrence Esq CEO 40.00 0.00 X 174589 0 1285 Anne Farrell CPO 40.00 0.00 X 114904 0 2962 Joan Reilly CFO 40.00 0.00 X 106157 0 8564 Kevin Gardner Chairman 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Katy Carlsen Vice Chair 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 James Hatter Treasurer 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Sarah Delaney Rosendahl Secretary 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Shelley Brown Board Member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Nancy Banning Doyle Board Member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Tracy Fauver Board Member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Michelle Griffin Board Member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Wendelyn Julien JD Board Member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Marie Kennedy Board Member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Don Kleinfelder Board Member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Elisa Mendel Board Member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Kimberly Moore Board Member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Allyson Pfeifer Board Member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Hon Arnold Rosenfield ret Board Member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Howard Slayen Board Member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Robert Smith Board Member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Lisa Spinali Board Member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Jan-Yu Weng Board Member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 395650 12811 3 false true false 0 428595 1483548 17637 1912143 0 11041 11041 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Miscellaneous Income 900099 971 971 971 1924155 12012 50707 50707 0 0 0 471667 312125 67975 91567 0 405094 326050 3723 75321 0 87796 63904 7180 16712 62420 45434 5105 11881 0 14371 14211 160 7500 5459 613 1428 0 0 0 85521 81569 1188 2764 0 32735 24973 2333 5429 0 0 33154 24132 2712 6310 23879 22465 425 989 0 5221 4041 354 826 0 0 0 6386 4648 522 1216 Program Expenses 227961 227961 Workshops and Convenings 29803 29803 Other Expenses 23024 18143 1468 3413 Telephone 9290 6762 760 1768 6037 4394 494 1149 1582566 1266781 95012 220773 410558 76774 661500 1488386 0 63157 17089 0 0 0 0 15997 17061 0 0 0 0 0 0 1151212 1599310 94823 111526 578240 550499 117547 673063 779572 X 478149 819738 478149 819738 1151212 1599310 341589 X false true X true false X 987269 930658 777989 1476776 1912143 6084835 0 0 987269 930658 777989 1476776 1912143 6084835 849155 5235680 33 31 771 7058 11041 18934 0 0 6103769 0.85780 0.91820 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED false false false true false false false false true 2056 false false 2056 false false X 1924155 1924155 1924155 1582566 1582566 1582566 Part X : FIN48 Footnote The Organization adopted the recognition requirements for uncertain income tax positions as required by generally accepted accounting principles, with no cumulative effect adjustment required. Income tax benefits are recognized for income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return, only when it is determined that the income tax position will more-likely-than-not be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Organization believes that income tax filing positions will be sustained upon examination and does not anticipate any adjustments that would result in a material adverse effect on the Organization's financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. Accordingly, the Organization has not recorded any reserves or related accruals for interest and penalties for uncertain income tax positions at June 30, 2020. The Organization is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress. true Casa of Del Norte 579 US Hwy 101 South Crescent City CA 95519 5475 0 CASA of Monterey County 945 S Main Street Suite 107 Salinas CA 93901 5210 0 CASA of Santa Cruz County 813 Freedom Blvd Watsonville CA 95076 5215 0 CASA of Ventura County PO Box 1135 Camarillo CA 93011 5250 0 0 4 X X X false false false false false false false false false Sharon M Lawrence Esq CEO 174589 1285 175874 Form 990, Part VI, Line 11b: Form 990 Review Process The governing body reviews and approves the tax return.
