From staff reports
Pennsylvania CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates) has planned a virtual town hall event titled “CASA Across the Commonwealth,” to be held at 1 p.m. Friday.
Organizers want to increase awareness of CASA volunteers’ advocacy work for abused and neglected children and draw attention to the number of children in the dependency system who could benefit from having a dedicated, trained volunteer, appointed by the Court, assigned to their case.
They also hope this virtual event will increase the number of citizens interested in volunteering to become advocates for children in the dependency system.
The event will stream simultaneously across three virtual platforms – PA CASA’s website, Facebook and YouTube.
Registration is available at www.pacasa.org/townhall.
Those interested should register even if they cannot attend at the time of the live event.
All registered participants will receive an email notifying them when the videos are available to watch after the premiere.
