CASA of Lexington

CASA of Lexington recruits, trains and supports community volunteers who are appointed to cases of abused and neglected children in family court. CASA volunteers advocate solely for the best interests of the children to whom they are appointed. Whenever safely possible, CASA volunteers advocate first for keeping children with their biological parents or reunification if the children have been removed. When CASA volunteers do not believe children can remain or be reunited with their parents safely, they advocate for placement with a relative or fictive kin, or for adoption when the other options are not available. CASA volunteers work to ensure children receive services and can be returned to safe, permanent homes as quickly as possible.
