CASA of Midwest Tennessee is a 501(c)3 nonprofit group affiliated with Tennessee CASA and the National CASA GAL organizations.
We recently expanded to serve children in Carroll County in addition to Gibson County.
CASA recruits, carefully screens, trains, and supervises volunteers to become Court Appointed Special Advocates for children who have been abused and neglected. CASA volunteers advocate for the best interests of the child with the goal of securing a safe, permanent home.
Tennessee state law allows Juvenile Court Judges to appoint CASA volunteers to “speak up” for the child’s best interests.
Most CASA volunteers advocate for only one child, or a family of children, at a time.
What impact does CASA have? We have a proven track record showing that children who had a CASA Volunteer are safe, healthy and better educated.
