A heartfelt thank you to our incredible Interim CEO, Molly Snow. 💛

Over the past year, Molly has shown up for our team and our mission in ways that have truly made a difference. From listening deeply to staff, to leading with empathy and care, she helped rebuild morale and remind all of us why this work matters.

The culture, systems, and foundation she leaves behind are a gift to our organization and to the children and families we serve.

As we welcome our new permanent CEO, Shakoya Green Long, we do so standing on the strong foundation Molly helped build. We’ll miss having Molly at the helm, but this isn’t a goodbye. Once part of the CASA LA family, always part of the CASA LA family!

Thank you, Molly. CASA LA is better because of you.

June is ! 🏳️‍🌈✨

Did you know that roughly 30% of youth in foster care identify as LGBTQ+? That is nearly triple the rate of the general population.

This statistic highlights just how important it is to provide affirming, compassionate advocacy for our youth. At CASA of LA, we believe every child deserves a safe space to be their authentic self.

Happy Pride Month from all of us at CASA of LA! 🏳️‍🌈✨ Let’s continue working together to uplift and protect our LGBTQ+ youth.
