CASA Program Highlights Critical Need for Funding and Support in Vanderburgh County
Sarah Rice, Executive Director of Vanderburgh County CASA, and Chief Judge Julian Patoffline presented an update on the CASA program and its critical role in serving abused and neglected children. They highlighted the program's impact on reducing time spent in foster care and preventing involvement in the criminal justice system. The presentation emphasized the disproportionately high rate of child abuse and neglect in Vanderburgh County compared to the state average, despite the county being ninth in population. They discussed the challenges of funding, the need for increased support, and the upcoming summer study session by the Indiana General Assembly Legislative Committee on CASA. The council engaged in a detailed discussion about the county's contribution to CASA funding, the state match requirements, and potential avenues for additional support from the city and school corporation.
