Henrico CASA

This week, eleven professionals completed our volunteer training and took an oath to serve both the children and judges of Henrico County as Court Appointed Special Advocates.?? That means eleven more children will now be seen, heard, and valued by a dedicated Advocate! ???? A tremendous THANK YOU and CONGRATULATIONS to Brenda Winston, Amy Ringberg, Ajanee’ Ransom, Deshawnda Johnson, Ethel Hayes, Shakia Lane, Sydney Quinones, PhD, Alejandra Lewis, Suzanne Harrison, E. Portia Albrecht, and Janet Hanson!

At Henrico CASA, our staff and volunteers work together to help amplify children's voices! All month long we will be featuring a few of these amazing individuals, their stories, and how working together strengthens our mission! Watch staff members Trish & Sydney speak about the impactful collaboration between advocates and staff.

Yesterday, Jeannine and Kristin dropped a new episode of our podcast, Vigilant Voices?. It is a sneak peek of the children's stories Henrico CASA will be sharing in our upcoming holiday giving campaign... Stories entrusted to us. Stories that are still in progress as our Advocates work towards a happier ending. Listen now: https://lnkd.in/eqp3CGUw

Last week, CASA's leaders, Advocates, and friends participated in a powerful poverty simulation. This immersive experience allowed participants to step into the shoes of individuals who were navigating financial instability, food insecurity, and limited access to a number of critical resources. This experience deepened our understanding of the children we serve who are facing the complex challenges associated with poverty and sparked meaningful, productive conversations about the importance of our work. Thank you to all who participated!
