CASA is like the very old woman/witch in Hansel and Gretel: Lure; capture; devour. What a disgusting organization CASA is. And it's an integral aspect of what's wrong with Child Welfare not just in Lawrence, Kansas but across the Nation as well. Read about it here:
http://nccpr.info/the-case-against-casa/
"In the fall of 1991, experts in the field held a conference at Harvard Law School to organize a new group to take the case for child protection reform to the public. The National Coalition for Child Protection Reform is the result of that conference. We are committed to seeking comprehensive change in the child protective system. We do not seek this change because the system hurts parents. We seek this change because the system hurts children. Our hope is to turn the public monologue about child abuse into a dialogue."
