The South Dakota Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) Commission is scheduled to meet on December 2, as reported by DRGNews. CASA volunteers are appointed by judges to represent the best interests of abused and neglected children in court proceedings.
During the upcoming meeting, the Commission is expected to discuss various matters related to the CASA program, including updates on advocacy activities, training opportunities for volunteers, and ways to improve the overall effectiveness of the program.
CASA volunteers play a crucial role in advocating for children who may otherwise not have a voice in the court system. By building relationships with the children they represent and gathering important information about their wellbeing, CASA volunteers are able to make recommendations to judges to ensure the children are in safe and supportive environments.
The upcoming meeting of the Commission will provide an opportunity for members to collaborate on strategies to enhance the CASA program and further support the children it serves. With the dedication and commitment of volunteers, the CASA program plays a vital role in advocating for the rights and well-being of vulnerable children in the state.
Individuals interested in learning more about the CASA program and how to become a volunteer can contact the South Dakota Court Appointed Special Advocates Commission for more information. The meeting on December 2 is open to the public, allowing community members to learn more about the important work being done on behalf of children in need.
