In 2023, CASA of Lexington helped 681 abused or neglected children in the family court systems of Bourbon, Fayette, Garrard, Jessamine, Lincoln, Scott and Woodford counties. That’s 681 children who would otherwise not have had someone visiting them monthly and advocating for their best interests in court. You can read about some of our CASA children’s success stories.
297 people like you volunteered with us in 2023. They contributed nearly 18,000 hours to improve the lives of the children we serve. 59 of those volunteers earned the prestigious President’s Volunteer Service Award. You can meet some of the different people who serve as CASA volunteers.
People living in 688 households supported CASA of Lexington financially in 2023, making it possible for the volunteers to do their life-changing work. It costs around $2,500 a to provide a child with a CASA volunteer for the duration of their case — less than what it costs the state to provide foster care for one month. You can make a donation of any amount right now.
Tiffany had a lot of trauma to work through. Therapy wasn't working.
Fortunately, she had a CASA volunteer, Dave.
Dave took the time to get to know Tiffany. Dave realized she was not the type to sit and talk about her feelings.
Dave did some digging to find a solution. Dave recommended equine therapy sessions for Tiffany, and the judge thought it was good idea.
Tiffany recently began her new therapy sessions on a local farm. Her mental wounds are finally beginning to heal as she works with the horses!
We have CASA-branded T-shirts, tumblers, water bottles, bags, jewelry, kitchen accessories and much more!
