CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates), advocates for safe, nurturing homes for children who have been abused or neglected, recruits, trains and supports volunteers who function as a voice for children in the juvenile court system, and collaborates with community agencies to end a systemic cycle of abuse in future generations.
Your whole family can wear their favorite superhero costumes for this fun night at the ballpark, because there will be great prizes and giveaways too. Watch the Grizzlies face off against the Windy City Thunderbolts. The first 500 kids will receive an awesome baseball backpack.
