CHILD ADVOCATES - CASA OF RED RIVER SERVES THE MOST INNOCENT AND VULNERABLE OF OUR COMMUNITY, CHILDREN WHO HAVE BEEN ABUSED OR NEGLECTED. OUR CHILDREN ARE IN THE CHILD PROTECTION/FOSTER CARE SYSTEM AND RELY UPON OUR VOLUNTEERS TO ADVOCATE FOR THEIR BEST INTERESTS AND TO SPEAK UP FOR THEM IN COURT. WE BELIEVE ALL CHILDREN SHOULD BE LOVED AND FEEL SAFE.CHILD ADVOCATES TRAIN COURT APPOINTED SPECIAL ADVOCATES (CASA'S) TO BE THE "VOICE" FOR ABUSED AND NEGLECTED CHILDREN IN WICHITA, ARCHER, CLAY, AND MONTAGUE COUNTIES IN TEXAS. AS GUARDIANS AD LITEM, CASAS MAKE RECOMMENDATIONS FOR SAFE, PERMANENT AND LOVING HOMES FOR CHILDREN. OUR GOAL IS TO DEVELOP SAFE, HAPPY, AND HEALTHY CHILDREN. WE STRIVE TO PROVIDE A CASA FOR EVERY CHILD WHO NEEDS ONE.
CASA VOLUNTEERS PROVIDE A DEPTH OF SERVICE TO CHILD VICTIMS WHICH WOULD NOT OTHERWISE BE AVAILABLE. OUR VOLUNTEERS PERSONALLY GET TO KNOW THE CHILD THEY SERVE SO THEY CAN MORE COMPLETELY UNDERSTAND THAT CHILD'S IMMEDIATE AND LONG TERM NEEDS AND MAKE SURE THOSE NEEDS ARE ADDRESSED. THESE VOLUNTEERS STAY WITH THE CHILD THROUGHOUT THE CASE PROVIDING THEM BOTH COMFORT AND STABILITY. THIS STABILITY IS CRITICAL TO THE CARE OF ABUSED CHILDREN AS THE CHAOS THEY ENDURE IS OFTEN COMPARABLE TO SURVIVING WAR OR NATURAL DISASTERS. THE FUNDAMENTAL GOALS FOR CHILD ADVOCATES ARE TO FULFILL THE PROMISE THAT EVERY CHILD DESERVES TO GROW UP IN A LOVING, SAFE, AND PERMANENT HOME; TO DIMINISH THE TRAUMA OF CHILD ABUSE IN OUR CHILDREN'S LIVES, AND LAY THE FOUNDATION SO EACH CHILD CAN HAVE THE BENEFIT OF A BIGHT FUTURE, REACHING THEIR FULL POTENTIAL. IN FISCAL YEAR 2019, OUR VOLUNTEERS GAVE 6,586 HOURS OF THEIR TIME IMPROVING THE LIVES OF ABUSED AND NEGLECTED CHILDREN IN ARCHER, CLAY, MONTAGUE AND WICHITA COUNTIES OF TEXAS. DURING THE FISCAL YEAR 8/31/2019, THE ORGANIZATION SERVED CHILDREN IN THE FOUR COUNTY REGION.
