December 3 is #GivingTuesday, when people come together to support causes close to their hearts. Nebraska CASA invites you to make a meaningful impact by donating to help abused and neglected foster children throughout Nebraska.
Adoption is more than just expanding your family; it’s an act of opening your heart to possibilities and building an unbreakable bond that goes beyond bloodlines. For many parents, the choice to adopt comes from a deep desire to nurture, guide, and love a child who needs a home. The process can be long and challenging, but the moment you hug your adopted child for the first time, the years ahead promise laughter, growth, and love that knows no bounds.
Domestic Violence Awareness Month is a time dedicated to understanding and confronting the devastating effects of domestic violence on individuals, families, and entire communities.
Suicide Prevention Month is a crucial time to raise awareness and foster conversations about mental health, especially for vulnerable populations like children and teens in foster care.
Every 11 minutes in the United States we lose a person to suicide. Learn the signs and resources to help children and youth or anyone struggling.
Educational stability is not just a matter of academic success for youth in foster care; it is a critical component of their overall well-being and future prospects.
Home is synonymous with safety, comfort, and love for many children. However, for some, this sense of security can be disrupted when they are removed from their homes and placed into foster care due to circumstances beyond their control. This traumatic transition can be overwhelming, leaving children feeling lost and alone in a complex system.
It is not the CASA volunteer’s role to determine whether certain actions constitute child abuse or neglect; the court will decide this. It is, however, necessary for CASA volunteers to be able to recognize signs of abuse and neglect to advocate effectively for children and youth in the court.
