July is National Su***de Prevention Awareness Month, and we would like to help raise awareness for those who are struggling. Su***de is the second leading cause of death for young people ages 10-24, and the 10th leading cause of death for all Americans. Su***de is preventable, and we can all play a role in helping to prevent it. If you or someone you know is struggling, please reach out for help. There are many resources available, including the National Su***de Prevention Lifeline at 988. You are not alone. ❤️💙🤍 ***de

Help CASA-VFC provide advocacy services to kids in foster care!

In many cases, the CASA advocate is the most consistent person in a foster child's life. Advocates stay on a case from beginning to end, getting to know the child and how best to support them. This relationship gives children their best chance for success in school, at home, and in their future.

If you can't commit to advocacy yourself, you can still help by donating to CASA-VFC today! Visit https://www.casa-vfc.org/donate to learn more.

We at CASA - Voices for Children would like to thank Catalyst Psychiatry for providing our staff the chance to attend last nights Corvallis Knight's home game. We had a blast supporting and cheering on our team!!! THANK YOU!

DONATION REQUEST!!!

CASA - Voices for Children is in need of a double stroller to be provided to resource families under our care. If you or someone you know has such an item and is willing to part with it, LET US KNOW!

We work hard to help families in need, and that includes providing transportation to the children in our care. A double stroller would allow one of our families to take their two children out together, which would greatly increase their quality of life.

Your contribution would be deeply appreciated and would go towards assisting resource families in need! Thank you for your consideration!
