Our Mission
At CASA for Kids, our mission is to promote the best interests of children in abuse and neglect cases by providing court appointed special advocate (CASA) volunteers in care and protection proceedings under Chapter 48 of the Wisconsin State Statutes. Our Vision
We believe that all children have a right to be safe and have their voices heard. Our Values
We value every child's right to a

safe and permanent home. We value child-centered advocacy, service, and collaboration. We value accountability and commitment. The CASA for Kids Program serves children ages birth to 18 in La Crosse, Vernon and Monroe Counties who have been determined by the court to be Children in Need of Protection or Services. The CASA for Kids volunteer is appointed as an Officer of the Court and assigned to a child under the court’s jurisdiction to provide information regarding the welfare and best interests of that child. A CASA volunteer is not only court-appointed, but a trained and committed adult who ensures that each child's individual needs and their safety remain priorities in our over-burdened child welfare system. A CASA volunteer maintains a positive and consistent presence while supporting and encouraging them. They also gather information from everyone involved in the child's life, in order to make independent and informed recommendations to assist the judge's decision on what is best for the child. A CASA volunteer is more than a volunteer, they are an advocate and the voice for a child in need of protection.
