Annette Craycraft, Executive Director of East Central CASA in Madison County, was Sarah Shaver’s guest. She explained that a CASA, Court Appointed Special Advocate, is the voice for a child in the court system who has been removed from their home due to abuse and/or neglect, fulfilling an important role to be a constant contact for the child during their entire time in the court system while other professionals – judges, social workers, etc. – might change over time. Madison County has seen a rise in the number of children in the court system and there is a great need for more CASA volunteers.
