CASA for Children

By Nancymccarroll
Eighteen months ago, I became a Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) for children and wrote a post about it here.
This past week I took on another case, and while at the CASA office I found this writing:
CASA VOLUNTEERS
We speak for a CHILD who wears shoes that are too smallwhose nightmares are a realitywho never heard of Mickey Mousewhose parents ran away
We are the voice of a childwho feels at faultwho lives in fear of daddy coming homewho wonders what it's like to have a friendwho only eats when food can be found
We listen to the childrenwho don't know what truth iswho are in constant need of a hugwho find freedom only on a swingwho believe they are the parent.
Together we work to make a differenceWE ARE COURT APPOINTED SPECIAL ADVOCATES
It was good enough to share. Please think about volunteering your efforts.
