Save CASA Culpeper

CULPEPER NEEDS CASA
All kids in foster care need CASAs - Court Appointed Special Advocates. When they have them, they get better medical care, do better in school, and spend less time in foster care.

But the CASA in Culpeper is at risk. Their umbrella organization, People Inc., reached out to Piedmont CASA because we are a natural fit. First, we are in the same judicial footprint, Virginia’s 16th District; and secondly, we have decades of experience in the region. Since 1995, we have served over 2,700 children in Albemarle, Charlottesville, Fluvanna, Greene, Louisa, and Madison.

LET'S TEAM UP
We plan to maintain the same experienced staff at the same Culpeper office. We consider this crucial for ensuring continuity and expertise in a high-need region - so that Culpeper children continue to have a strong voice in the courts and in the community. 

YOUR SUPPORT IS KEY
Piedmont CASA has received seed funding to launch this transition, but we also need community support to help absorb and sustain the operations of Culpeper CASA. Community funding that will help Piedmont CASA scale up recruitment and training efforts for new CASA Advocates, while expanding support staff and infrastructure to accommodate the new county. Community funding to preserve critical services for children already in the system, while creating the capacity to serve many more.
