Our mission is simple—join us for impact.

Nebraska CASA Association is a network of 22 local programs in Nebraska serving 55 counties. We recruit, screen, train and support Court Appointed Special Advocates. Those advocates are volunteers - just like you - who are appointed by a judge to speak for the well-being of abused and neglected children.

June is National LGBTQ+ Pride Month

It is a time to celebrate the unique experiences, challenges, and resiliency of LGBTQ+ youth in foster care. It serves as a reminder of our commitment to advocating for the rights and well-being of all youth.

According to the Human Rights Campaign, one of every 3 youth in foster care is LGBTQ+ and they report higher rates of mistreatment while in care, more placement disruptions, and a higher likelihood of placement in a facility instead of a family home.

CASA volunteers have a unique opportunity and responsibility to ensure that LGBTQ+ youth in foster care are seen, heard, and supporting. By understanding the specific needs and challenges faced by this population, volunteers can advocate more effectively and compassionately on their behalf.
