An evening of Concert and Conversation will be held with Peter Buffett at the Ritz Auditorium on the University of Findlay Campus to benefit Voices for Children.
The mission of Voices for Children is to recruit, train, supervise and support community volunteers who speak for the best interests of abused, neglected and/or dependent children in the courts. Every year in Hancock County, approximately 50 new children enter the child protection system. The Juvenile Court appoints CASA volunteers to investigate, facilitate, advocate and monitor each child’s case at all stages to ensure that the best interest of the child is addressed. A member of both the Ohio State and National CASA Associations, Voices for Children has provided a powerful voice in court for over 700 children since 1994. The first CASA program was created in Seattle, Washington in 1977 to make sure the abuse and neglect these children originally suffered at the hands of their caregivers doesn’t continue as abuse and neglect at the hands of the system. The result of a CASA appointment is that a child is placed into a safe, permanent home where he/she can thrive. It is the CASA vision to provide a volunteer for each and every abused and neglected child who needs one. For more information, visit www.hcvoicesforchildren.org
