CASA of the Heartland receives grant to support expansion

CASA of the Heartland recently received a grant to support their efforts as they expand their services to three more counties.

The organization was awarded a $33,665 Volunteer Recruitment Grant from the National Court Appointed Special Advocate/Guardian ad litem Association for Children. According to a release, the grant will allow CASA of the Heartland “to strengthen its efforts to recruit additional volunteers, enabling the program to increase the number of children served across its expanding service region.”

CASA of the Heartland Executive Director Michelle Kail said after originating in Hardin County and expanding to cover LaRue County, the organization decided to take over for the dissolving Tri-County CASA organization and expand to cover Breckinridge, Grayson, and Meade counties.

“We went through a pretty extensive process to figure out if taking on this extra area would be something that we could do and do well, and ultimately we decided that we could not let those kiddos go unserved, and so we are now serving a five county region,” Kail said.

Kail said the organization has an Amazon Wish List posted and is accepting donations, but the best way to support CASA’s mission is by becoming a court-appointed special advocate yourself.

“If you are interested in learning more about being a CASA volunteer, you can visit CASAheartland.org,” Kail said. “We recently shared a video called Coffee with CASA, so if someone just wants to sit down with us and ask more questions, just give our office a call and we will set something up. Our number is 270-982-2274.

More information is also available on the CASA of the Heartland Facebook page.
