Several members of the Washoe CASA Program and Foundation Board were in attendance for the annual Northern Nevada Legal Aid fundraiser: Voices for Justice Luncheon. The Topaz Room at the Renaissance Reno Hotel was the setting on Friday April 21, 2023 for lunch and auction activities. It was an afternoon for reflecting on the excellent work that NNLA does for populations that do not have adequate access to legal services. The attorneys who work for NNLA have put in countless hours helping thousands of people, most especially, children in foster care. We were proud to be on hand to show our support for an organization who supports the very children we work for.
Starting earlier this year, CASA of Somerset, Hunterdon and Warren Counties (NJ) has been highlighting various issues within the world of foster care through its podcast, CASA Connection. Join the program’s staff, volunteers and former foster youth every two weeks through Apple Podcasts, Amazon Music, Podbean or iHeart for topical discussions about issues that directly impact the child welfare system and best-interest advocacy.
