RSVP to participateJoin CASA's Board of Directors in honoring Chicago Cubs icon, sports entertainment personality, and philanthropist Ryan Dempster, as we celebrate the inspiring work of our CASA Volunteers in response to a year of challenges for our CASA children. CASA's 2021 Virtual Gala will showcase the power that a single determined person has to change lives for children in foster care.
Children in the child welfare system have suffered more than ever amidst the Covid-19 public health crisis. Court hearings were paused, placements were disrupted, foster homes were in short supply, and the number of new cases of abuse or neglect continued to rise at unprecedented rates. Through it all, our CASA volunteers have shown a determination and devotion to every one of the children they serve. Our volunteers and staff have adapted to ensure that no child falls through the cracks of a stressed and overwhelmed child welfare system.
Our virtual gala will provide a window into the inspiring work of our CASA Volunteers. Join us as we celebrate what has been accomplished and support us as we help our CASA children to recover and look forward to a brighter future.
