BAAR forms community service partnership with CASA

CASA – IT’S ABOUT HELPING KIDS!

In September 2009, BAAR formed a community service partnership with CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates) of Queen Anne’s and Kent Counties, an organization that works with our most vulnerable children: those who have been abused, neglected or abandoned and are under the protection of the court.

CASA’s primary role is to advocate for the best interests of these children, all of whom are in foster care, helping to ensure that they are placed in safe, permanent homes.

This is what makes the BAAR / CASA connection so meaningful.
