Want to make a direct impact in your community? Become a CASA volunteer.

CASA volunteers advocate for children experiencing foster care, ensuring their needs are understood and their voices are heard in court, school, and beyond. With just a few hours a week, you can help change the trajectory of a child’s life.

We’re currently recruiting for our next training class — and we’d love to have you join us. Visit www.dekalbcasa.org to learn more and register for our next Information Sessions or send us a message to get started.

🎉✨ Happy Last Day of School, DeKalb County! ✨🎉

As students close their books and head into a well‑deserved summer break, we’re celebrating all the hard work, growth, and resilience shown throughout the school year.

To our students: we’re proud of you.
To our teachers and school staff: thank you for your dedication and heart.
To our families and caregivers: your support makes all the difference.

From all of us at the DeKalb County CASA Program, we wish everyone a safe, fun, and restorative summer. ☀️💛

Enjoy the sunshine, make memories, and take good care of yourselves.

Happy Wellness Wednesday, DeKalb CASA community!

In the middle of busy schedules, heavy stories, and the everyday demands of life, taking even one minute to breathe with intention can make a world of difference.

Here’s a simple grounding exercise you can try today — and share with someone who may need it:

✨ 4–4–4 Breathing Exercise

Inhale slowly for a count of 4

Hold for a count of 4

Exhale gently for a count of 4

Repeat 3–5 times

This small moment of calm can help reset your mind, ease tension, and bring you back to center.

Thank you to our CASA and Education Advocate volunteers, partners, and community for showing up with compassion every day.

Remember: caring for yourself is part of caring for others. 💙

💙 Honoring Memorial Day

Today, as we gather with family and friends, we pause to honor and remember the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country. 🙏

The DeKalb County CASA Program stands in solemn remembrance of our fallen heroes. In observance of Memorial Day, our office is closed today, as we pay tribute to those who gave everything for the sake of our nation. 🕊️

May we carry their legacy of courage, valor, and patriotism in our hearts — today and every day. 💙

As Mental Health Awareness Month comes to a close, we’re reminded that supporting emotional well‑being isn’t a one‑month commitment — it’s something we carry forward every day.

At DeKalb County CASA, we see firsthand how mental health impacts the children and families we serve. Our volunteers, partners, and community members play a vital role in ensuring that every child feels seen, supported, and understood.

To our CASA and Education Advocate volunteers: thank you for advocating with compassion, for recognizing the whole child, and for helping ensure mental health needs are not overlooked.

To our partners at DeKalb County Juvenile Court, DFCS, and across the community: thank you for walking alongside us in this work.

To our families and youth: your resilience inspires us.

Mental Health Awareness Month may be ending, but our commitment to awareness, healing, and hope continues. 💚

Every child experiencing foster care deserves someone in their corner — someone who listens, shows up, and speaks up for their needs. At DeKalb County CASA, our volunteers are that steady voice.

If you’ve ever wondered how you could make a meaningful difference in a child’s life, this is your moment. We’re looking for compassionate community members to join us as CASA volunteers.

No legal background required — just a commitment to helping a child feel seen, heard, and supported. 💙

Happy National Streaming Day! 🎬💻

Streaming makes it easier than ever to learn, recharge, and explore new perspectives — and today is the perfect reminder to take advantage of it.

CASA and Education Advocate volunteers can earn 2 hours of Continuing Education by streaming a film, documentary, or series related to foster care, trauma, child development, or anything that supports your advocacy work.

It’s also a great opportunity for self‑care: settle in with something meaningful, reflect, and refuel.

Whether you choose a documentary about the child welfare system, a movie that deepens your understanding of trauma, or a story that inspires empathy and resilience, your learning makes a difference for the children you serve.

💙 Stream with purpose today — and don’t forget to log your CE hours! Reach out to [email protected] if you have questions.
