Community Resources

Going over and beyond to help bridge the needed resources in healthcare, education and transportation. We make every effort to ensure that youth needs that are eligible to be covered by DCFS are fulfilled. Review the additional support that CASA Kane County can provide to better meet our children’s needs.

My CASA volunteer went above and beyond the call of duty. I believe that everyone is born with the ability to succeed but that some fail to meet their potential. As youth in care, we need more support to know what we are capable of because we often feel we are less than average. My CASA volunteer provided that encouragement and support.”
