A big thank you to Arbor Green for returning as the presenting sponsor of this year's Mad Hatter’s Bingo! 🎩💙

Their continued sponsorship helps make this fun-filled evening possible while supporting our Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) program. CASA trains and supports volunteers who advocate for children and youth who have experienced abuse or neglect, ensuring they have a voice in the decisions made about their future and someone looking out for their best interests.

We’re so grateful to have Arbor Green helping bring this year’s event to life!

Register for an evening of bingo, raffles, wine, and more!

It doesn't always take a big gift to make a big impact.

Our Amazon Wish List includes everyday items that help Canopy Center run - from office and cleaning supplies to snacks, activities, and gift cards. These items help children express themselves, keep our spaces welcoming and provide practical support for families when it's needed most.

When you purchase an item, you're helping us spend less on everyday essentials and more on the services children and families rely on. Thank you! 💜

Thanks to a grant from the Joseph Martin Nunn Family Support & Reunification Fund, we're able to support a family served through our CASA program. 🩵

This grant will help support a child who was placed with a grandparent after their parents entered treatment. Taking on the responsibility of raising a young child meant reducing work hours and taking on new expenses, putting the grandparent's housing at risk. This funding will help the family remain housed while the child's parents focus on their recovery. 🏠

We're grateful for the Fund's investment in families working to overcome substance use challenges and create safe, stable homes for their children.

We're excited to share that Sarah Berndt has been named Canopy Center's next Executive Director!

Sarah brings more than 15 years of leadership experience and a passion for connecting people with purpose in service of children and families. Since joining Canopy Center as Development Director, she has strengthened community partnerships, expanded fundraising efforts, and helped position the organization for continued growth and impact.

"One of the things I admire most about Canopy Center is that children and families have a voice in shaping the support they receive," Sarah said. "It's been a privilege to help grow support for this work over the past three years, and I'm honored to lead Canopy Center into its next chapter."

Please join us in welcoming Sarah into this new role! 💙

The CASA local programs across Wisconsin work hard all year to ensure children have an volunteer advocate to walk with them through their child in need of protection case until the child is in a safe and permanent home.

Look at the amazing collective impact these programs had in 2025!

AtwoodFest and Kid's Fest have been canceled.

We stand with our community during this difficult time. Please take care of yourselves, check in on your neighbors, and extend grace to one another.

We look forward to celebrating with you next year. 💙

Last week, we celebrated a special milestone as our newest CASA volunteers were officially sworn in as friends of the court and welcomed to the program.

This swearing-in was especially meaningful because it was the first led by Judge Nia Trammell, and was a true full-circle moment. Years before taking the bench, Judge Trammell served as a CASA volunteer right here in Dane County, advocating for children in foster care who experienced abuse and neglect.

After the ceremony, our CASA Case Coordinator Clara, surprised volunteers with fun take-home crafts and activities they can use to connect with the children they serve.

Congratulations to our newest CASA volunteers! Your advocacy makes a difference! 💙
