CASA of the Heartland celebrated the growth of the organization with a ribbon cutting at their new headquarters in Elizabethtown Monday.
CASA of the Heartland Executive Director Michelle Kail says the new office, located at 950 North Mulberry Street, Suite 290 in Elizabethtown, was needed after the organization expanded its service area to include LaRue County in 2023 and Breckinridge, Grayson, and Meade counties in 2024.
“We were just kind of looking down the road to see when we might need to post another position, and we realized that we weren’t going to have anywhere to put another person when we got to that point, so we decided to start our search for some spaces to see what was out there, and luckily we were very blessed to find the wonderful space that we’re in now,” Kail said.
Kail says in 2024 CASA of the Heartland served 265 children, and to this point in 2025 the organization has served 222 children.
“We suspect that those numbers will continue to increase, and that’s why we need more space and why we need more staffing because we are seeing an increase in services needed, and we want to be able to try to keep up with that need as best as possible, and that’s our ultimate goal is to just be able to serve as many kiddos as possible,” Kail said.
Anybody interested in serving as a court-appointed special advocate or is interested in volunteering in another capacity may visit the new office or visit www.casaheartland.org for more information.
