The organization trains and supports court-appointed special advocates (CASA) and guardian ad litem (GAL) volunteers to advocate for children\u2019s best interests once a child who has experienced abuse or neglect has been placed in foster care.<\/p>\n<p>With the contribution from the WellSky Foundation, National CASA\/GAL will recruit and train additional child advocates, leading to more children being placed in safe, permanent homes and with their families of origin whenever safely possible. The grant will also provide funding for CASA of Johnson &amp; Wyandotte Counties (Kansas).<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen children don\u2019t have safety, security, and life\u2019s most basic needs, their chances of thriving in childhood and adulthood are significantly diminished. While we currently serve 242,000 children nationally, there are over 100,000 who still need the powerful voice of a CASA\/GAL volunteer to advocate for their best interests. The support from the WellSky Foundation helps us not only continue to provide pre-service and in-service training of volunteers and staff but helps recruit more volunteers,\u201d said Tara Lisa Perry, Chief Executive Officer for National CASA\/GAL.<\/p>\n<p>In the U.S., more than <a href=\"https:\/\/nationalcasagal.org\/our-impact\/our-reach\/\">390,000 children are in foster care<\/a> on any given day. Volunteers through the national CASA\/GAL network serve as a consistent presence in a child\u2019s life, routinely meeting with the child\u2019s family, foster parents, teachers, doctors, therapists, social workers, and attorneys to understand what is needed to support the child during an uncertain and challenging time. Judges depend on CASA\/GAL volunteers for critical information to help them make the most well-informed decisions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAligned with the WellSky Foundation&#8217;s mission, this grant will play a pivotal role in expanding the CASA and GAL advocate network, ensuring that more passionate individuals can contribute to our shared goal of providing every child with a safe and nurturing home,\u201d said Brett Fuller, executive director of the WellSky Foundation. \u201cTogether with the National CASA\/GAL Association for Children, we are expanding a foundation of support and amplifying the voices of vulnerable children who are unable to speak for themselves.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The WellSky Foundation has donated $1.7 million to over 36 organizations since 2019.
