Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA)

Every day, abused and neglected children in our community are taken from their homes and placed into temporary foster care because their parents cannot - or will not - take care of them. Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) of McHenry County works to help these children find safe, permanent homes where they can thrive. CASA volunteers make a life-long difference for children, one child at a time.

CASA’s Mission is to support and promote court appointed volunteer advocacy in McHenry County which provides abused and neglected children a voice.

CASA’s Vision is to have a sustainable program, supported by an engaged community, that has the ability to provide a trained, committed advocate to every abused and neglected child in the McHenry County Court system.
