Thank you...

 To the Franklin County Community Resource Board who provided the opportunity for Tammi Stoos to present to members of the community.  Tammi talked to teenagers and adults about her experience in foster care and now as a social worker and foster parent.  Tammi was an inspiration to us all giving us strength to be not only survivors, but thrivers in life.  Also, thank you to Union High School and Super 8 in Union for supporting this event, and volunteers Mary Tinsley and Diana Hall for organizing.  It was another CASA success.

A special thank you to all who participated in helping to make our

Meet Our CASA Children

 

Franklin County CASA volunteers are currently appointed to 63 of the 200 children in foster care in the county.  These such children range from 19 months to 20 years; each having their own stories of suffering from abuse and/or neglect and each having their own stories of courage and healing.  CASA volunteers are privileged to walk with these children through one segment of their life journey
