We achieve this goal by strengthening California's network of local CASA programs and advocating for child welfare policy and practice. false false 858858 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 Council staffto ensure that local CASA programs are in compliance with State and NationalStandards, c) communicating the CASA perspective and advocating for child welfare policy, and d) identifying and pursuing valuable strategic alliances that leverage and/or expand our children's resources statewide.

This translates to a network of 44 CASA programs and 8,790 volunteer advocates serving over 14,150 foster children in 51 counties throughout the state. 858858 true true false true false false false false false false false false false false false true true false false false 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 false false false true 18 0 true 11 true false false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false 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 James Hatter Chairman 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Shelley Brown Vice Chair 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Jan-Yu Wang Secretary 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Kevin Gardner Treasurer 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Katy Carlsen 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 J Michael Hughes 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 Kim Moore Board Member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Elisa Mendel Board Member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Wendelyn Nichols-Julien Board Member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Sarah Delaney Rosendahl Board Member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Robert Smith Board Member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Sharon Lawrence CEO 40.00 0.00 X X 166500 0 0 Anne Farrell CPO 40.00 0.00 X X 65852 0 0 Joan Reilly CFO 40.00 0.00 X X 45286 0 0 Karen Finan Program Director 40.00 0.00 X 102357 0 0 Adam Wallace Treasurer 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 S Keating Rhoads Board Member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 379995 2 true true false 0 179825 1296951 3736 1476776 0 7058 7058 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1483834 7058 22400 22400 0 0 0 424558 274005 67493 83060 0 259184 213440 588 45156 0 84631 60334 8427 15870 52880 37699 5265 9916 0 21565 20585 920 60 7500 5347 747 1406 0 0 0 56656 53691 645 2320 0 26731 19057 2661 5013 0 0 25231 17987 2513 4731 27843 27843 0 6598 4704 657 1237 0 0 0 4483 3196 446 841 Workshops and convenings 53793 53793 Other expenses 27328 19484 2719 5125 Program expenses 19747 19747 Telephone 7779 5546 774 1459 0 1128907 858858 93855 176194 122975 410558 175144 661500 0 80229 63157 0 0 0 0 15872 15997 0 0 0 0 0 0 394220 1151212 34793 94823 236205 578240 270998 673063 X 123222 478149 123222 478149 394220 1151212 354927 X false true X true false X 809230 987269 930658 777989 1476776 4981922 0 0 809230 987269 930658 777989 1476776 4981922 400203 4581719 45 33 31 771 7058 7938 0 0 4989860 0.91820 0.99290 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED false false false true false false false false true 7679 false false 7679 false false X 1483834 1483834 1483834 1128907 1128907 1128907 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, 2019. The Organization is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress. false CASA of Ventura County PO Box 1135 Camarillo CA 93011 5200 0 1 0 X X X false false false false false false false false false false Sharon Lawrence CEO 166500 166500 Form 990, Part VI, Line 11b: Form 990 Review Process The governing body reviews and approves the tax return.
