CASA Volunteers Needed
The San Juan CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocate) volunteer program is recruiting people interested in helping abused and neglected children. CASA’s mission is to support effective volunteer advocacy for the best interest of abused and neglected children and assist in helping a child to reach a safe and permanent home. Interested individuals willing to be a powerful voice in a child’s life can contact Amy or Edwinna at Childhaven (325-5358 ext. 143 or 142) for further information or stop by 807 W. Apache, Farmington to pick up an application. Our Spring CASA Pre-Service Training will be held in April, 2009. CASA volunteers provide hope for a brighter future for our children!
