CASA Pinwheels for Prevention

Spread the love

Chautauqua County

  During National Child Abuse Prevention Month this April, CASA of Chautauqua County is once again calling on the community to help raise awareness and take a stand against child abuse and neglect. CASA is grateful for the continued partnership and generous support of Shults Auto Group in support of the annual Pinwheels for Prevention campaign.

    Pinwheels for Prevention is a national awareness campaign created by Prevent Child Abuse America that encourages individuals and communities to take action in preventing child abuse and neglect. The pinwheel serves as a symbol of the happy, healthy childhoods all children deserve.

    Support from community partners like Shults Auto Group plays a vital role in advancing CASA’s mission and expanding awareness efforts throughout Chautauqua County. Their ongoing commitment helps ensure that children who have experienced abuse or neglect have a voice and the opportunity for a safe, permanent home.

   All funds raised through CASA’s Pinwheels for Prevention campaign directly support the organization’s mission of recruiting, training, and supporting volunteers who advocate for abused and neglected children in Chautauqua County.

   To support CASA’s mission, tax-deductible donations can be made online at www.ChautauquaCASA.com or by mailing a check to CASA of Chautauqua Co., Inc., 2 Academy Street, Suite 5, Mayville, NY 14757.

CASA of Chautauqua

    The mission of the Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) of Chautauqua County is to provide an independent voice in court, advocating for the best interest of abused and neglected children in the pursuit of finding safe and permanent homes. CASA of Chautauqua County, Inc. relies on highly trained volunteers who are appointed by a Chautauqua County Family Court Judge to advocate for children in court. These volunteers work with relevant agencies and parties in order to advocate for the best interest of the child. With the information provided by the CASA volunteer, Family Court Judges are better able to make informed decisions as to what is best for the child. CASA of Chautauqua County is a United Way Community Partner.
