关于我们
Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) of Oklahoma County provides trained volunteers to be a champion for the individualized best interests of children in foster care. CASA provides a trained caring adult to advocate for the best interest of children who have been removed from their home due to abuse or neglect. CASA volunteers get to know the children and communicate with all parties in the case and people in the child’s life in order to provide complete information and sound recommendations to the court. As “the eyes and ears” of the judge, the CASA volunteer offers a neutral, third-party opinion to the court, one that is unbiased and child-focused. Annually, there are over 9,000 Oklahoma children in foster care. Our program serves the most difficult of the abuse and neglect cases in Oklahoma County. Although these cases are under the jurisdiction of our county, the children may be placed in foster homes all across the state. CASA of Oklahoma County, Inc. is a Member of the National CASA Association and the Oklahoma State CASA Association, as well as a United Way of Central Oklahoma Partner Agency.

Last Monday, the Oklahoma County Juvenile Court in partnership with the National Council of Juvenile and Family Court Judges (NCJFCJ) hosted an Open House where children in foster care could come and meet their judges, see the courtrooms, and get some back-to-school gear! Many children don’t attend court and/or get to meet their Judges, and we are grateful for an initiative to help children feel welcome and involved in their cases. We are so proud of our Team Lead, Mekka Marion-Johns for serving on the committee responsible for bringing such a great night to fruition.
