Cristi Lantano Speaks at Fielder Church: Domingo de Cuidado Temporal

Our Child Advocacy Specialist Cristi was honored to be able to speak at the Fielder Church Spanish service for their event: Domingo de Cuidado Temporal. In the service, Cristi said, "The need that we have is huge. We have a tremendous number of children in foster care who do not have an advocate, and we have children who are placed in different parts of the state and even in different states. The work that CASAs do is being there for the child they are assigned to, making sure that they are safe. We have multiple children who go from foster home to foster home to different RTCs, the role of the CASA volunteer is to be the person that follows them wherever they go to provide consistency."
