ADVOCATE OF THE MONTH

As we step into a new year, it's a time of reflection and opportunity to make meaningful changes in our lives and our community. While resolutions often focus on personal goals like fitness or adventure, imagine making a resolution that impacts a child's life forever. CASA of Wise and Jack Counties honors those who do just that—our incredible Advocate of the Month. Each month, we celebrate a volunteer whose dedication, compassion, and advocacy make a profound difference for children in need.
