关于我们
Child Advocacy Services (CAS) is a private, non-profit umbrella agency providing services through the Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) program, Children’s Advocacy Center (CAC) program, and other services supporting its mission to give Voice, Healing, and Security to children. CAS offers advocacy, clinical services, and prevention education for children and families in 10 parishes including Ascension, Assumption, East Feliciana, Livingston, St. Charles, St. Helena, St. James, St. John, Tangipahoa, and West Feliciana Parishes. Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) recruits, trains, and supervises volunteers who serve as powerful voices for abused and neglected children as they navigate through the court system. CASAs are every day community members appointed by a judge to advocate for children in need of care. CASAs work collaboratively with professionals in the child welfare system and report to the judge on the child’s behalf. A CASA stands beside the child with the primary goal of helping them reach a safe and permanent home, as quickly as possible. Our Children’s Advocacy Center Program (CAC) provides a safe child friendly environment for children who may have experienced abuse or witnessed a crime. A multidisciplinary team of professionals works together to reduce trauma and ensure the safety of children and families throughout the investigative process. CAS maintains four sites including Hammond, Denham Springs, Gonzales, and St. Francisville.

For over a decade, Mrs. Janet Tully has been a treasured partner of Child Advocacy Services, using her incredible creativity to bring joy to children in foster care. Throughout the year, she lovingly crafts handmade shoes, outfits, and personalized accessories for dolls, ensuring that every child receives a gift that reflects their unique identity. Her dedication to providing a diverse selection of dolls allows every child to feel seen and valued. These special dolls and accessories bring smiles and comfort to the children we serve, and we are beyond grateful for Mrs. Tully’s compassion and generosity. Thank you, Mrs. Tully, for making a difference in the lives of children in need! ?? #GIVEAVOICE

Thanks you your generosity, each Buddy represents hop and support for a child in need. The drive will continue to run through November, so there's still time to donate and make a difference! Let's keep the momentum going -- join us in helping make a child's day a little brighter.
