CASA of Menominee/Marinette

Change a Child’s Story

Each year, in this country, more than 500,000 children are placed in some form of foster care and thrust into the court system.  They have committed no crime, but are simply child victims who have been abused, neglected, or abandoned.  It is then up to a judge to decide their futures.  The judge must consider the following:  Did the conditions at home warrant removal?  Is the home now safe enough to allow the child’s return or should that child be permanently placed in another home?

The mission of CASA of Menominee/Marinette is to provide quality volunteer advocacy for children who have experienced abuse or neglect involved with family court to assure each child a safe, permanent, and nurturing home.
