CASA
In this episode, Nikesha Womble discusses the work of CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates) in the foster care system.

CASA volunteers are community members who provide consistent support to children in foster care, helping them find permanent, safe homes. They work with various individuals involved in a child's life, including foster parents, biological families, and the court system.

CASA volunteers undergo training and are assigned to one child or a sibling group.

The impact of CASA can be life-changing, as they advocate for the best interests of the children and build meaningful relationships with them.

The episode also emphasizes the need for more foster families and encourages listeners to consider volunteering with CASA.
