Help CASA Help Our Kids!
Does your business or organization send out a regular or semi-regular newsletter? If so, please consider reaching out to the First Judicial District CASA Association and adding them to your newsletter. CASAs do invaluable work on behalf of children by helping "hold their hands" while navigating the ins and outs of our court system.

CASAs are of huge benefit to these kids...CASAs are there to support the kids directly, whether in court, helping supervise parental visits, or just seeing to as many of the kids' needs as possible...and CASAs are VOLUNTEERS...they just want to help as many children as they can.

If you'd like to help out, even by just helping spread word about CASA in your newsletter or other publications, please reach out to them.

You can contact Jere' here in Leavenworth via email at jere@casalvks.org, or you can call CASA directly at (913) 651-6440.

Let's try to help CASA help our kids!
If you'd like to sponsor the Leavenworth-Lansing Ledger, and would like to know how, contact Lauren at the Chamber!
