In April, Franklin County CASA added ten new volunteers to the CASA family! This group of amazing individuals from different backgrounds came together with the common interest of advocating for children in foster care. By being that one consistent figure in a child’s life, they will instill a sense of belonging to children facing upheaval and uncertainty.
Congratulations to Tracey Gutierrez, Elizabeth Harbert, Tricia Higgins, Philicia Meyer, Shelly Osburn, Nicholas Risch, Nicole Risch, Timothy Schumann, Michelle Sieve and Maria Whitworth.
We also want to extend a very special thank you to First Christian Church of Washington, St. John United Church of Christ (St. Clair), Owensville Christian Church, First Presbyterian Church (Union) and the CASA Board of Directors for providing the class with dinner and snacks during their weekly class session.
