THE ADVOCATES WORK TO ENSURE THAT THE CHILDREN THEY SERVE RECEIVE COUNSELING, EDUCATIONAL SUPPORT, ENRICHMENT OPPORTUNITIES, MATERIAL SUPPORT, ETC TO MAKE SURE THE CHILDREN HAVE THE BEST CHANCE TO HEAL AND THRIVE. WE WORK TO HELP CHILDREN FIND THEIR VOICE AND EMPOWER THEM TO BECOME STRONGER, HEALTHIER INDIVIDUALS. IN 2017, WE ROLLED OUT THE NCASA SPECIALIZED CURRICULUM "FOSTERING FUTURES" WHICH PROVIDES SPECIALIZED TRAINING TO ADVOCATES, COACHES AND STAFF WHO WILL BE WORKING WITH FOSTER TEENS.

IN THE SUMMER OF 2017 WE HELD OUR 2ND ANNUAL CAMP CONNECT. THIS IS THE RESULT OF A PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN CASA FOR KIDS, CHILDBRIDGE AND EASTHAVEN BAPTIST CHURCH. THE CAMP PROVIDES AN OPPORTUNITY TO REUNITED SIBLING SEPARATED THROUGH FOSTER CARE AND/OR ADOPTION, AS WELL AS EDUCATION FOR THEIR FOSTER/ADOPTIVE FAMILIES. OUR GOAL IS TO HELP FACILITATE SIBLING RELATIONSHIPS AND PARENTAL EDUCATION THAT WILL HELP BUILD STRONG, STABLE FAMILIES.
