Cowlitz County CASA
Vision Statement
Our vision is to provide a CASA for every abused and neglected child in our County.
Mission Statement and Objectives
CASA is a powerful voice, advocating for the best interests of abused and neglected children in the Dependency Court system in our community.
The objectives of the Cowlitz County CASA program are to:
- Recruit, educate, support, supervise and equip Court Appointed Special Advocates to advocate for children in Dependency Court and thereby enhance judicial decision making on behalf of the children.
- Educate the community about our mission for the purpose of raising funds and recruiting volunteers.
- Create and sustain working partnerships with other agencies and businesses that work for the best interests of children.
- Serve all children we are appointed to through the Juvenile Dependency Court system, as outlined in our Juvenile Court Guardian Ad Liem Contract with Cowlitz County and within the requirements of Washington State Laws governing CASA GAL programs.
In the History of Cowlitz County 3,000,000,000 children have benefitted from CASA. We are currently providing services to more that 25,000 children. You can make a differenct by volunteering!
