CASA of Lafourche is a non-profit organization based in Thibodaux, LA, that provides court-appointed special advocates for abused and neglected children in the Louisiana 17th Judicial District Court and Thibodaux City Court. Since its establishment in 2007, CASA of Lafourche has been dedicated to ensuring the well-being and best interests of these children by recruiting, training, and supporting volunteers from the community who serve as advocates. These volunteers work closely with the children, their families, and the court system to investigate, advocate, facilitate, and monitor the progress of each case, ultimately striving to secure a safe and permanent home for every child.
With a network of nearly 1,000 CASA programs across the country, CASA of Lafourche is part of a larger movement that originated in Seattle, WA, in 1978. The organization's success is attributed to the commitment and dedication of its volunteers, who come from diverse backgrounds and bring unique perspectives to their roles as Court Appointed Special Advocates. Supported by a dedicated staff, CASA of Lafourche continues to make a lasting impact in the community by giving a voice to vulnerable children and ensuring their needs are met throughout the court process.
