    The casa workers aren't doing a thing to help us. A six year old boy disclosed to his parents that he was abused and neglected by multiple people in the home of a family member, and tormented by the teanage boy in the home. When the family member was informed of this, she became irate and defensive accusing Noah of lying. She then showed up at our home to confront the 6 year old boy for "making up stories". When we refused to allow her to berate him, she called the police. The officer advised that we contact C.P.S. for help. C.P.S. worker decided to believe the angry alcoholicl single mom over a conservative Christian family with a history or working with the youth as a youth minister and a veteran who joined the Army following the 911 incedent. The worker then began to cause us of coaching Noah. The family member filed for visitation with the boy (despite her not seeing the boy for over a year). We suspect she is attempting to protect her and her children's behavior by consulting with (manipulating) Noah and promising him gifts. When they came to retrieve Noah for the visit, he expressed fear of going to the home, and didn't want to go. The worker attempted to bribe Noah with gifts and a fun time. I then intervened and told the worker to leave. The next day they removed Noah from our home and attempted to place him with the family member where the abuse accurred. She turned him away at the door, and he was place in a resourse home. We have spent all of our savings, and my wife has taken a second job to pay for legal fees. We have spent seven thousand so far and need to obtain more help due to the lies and cohersion aimed to keep Noah in foster care. If you would like to help, please donate or share with others. www.gofundme.com/f/wgah9-free-noah?memberId=7508412

    Danger, Beware. CASA Court Appointed Adovacates have no special licenses Or training, dealing with traumatized Children. I can't express enough, do not trust these people. They are only for adoption and foster. Would rather send Children to strangers rather than a family member who loves and wants them. It is abuse Title Iv-3 monies from the Government. For CASA to make blood monies from our Children. Child Snatchers, Do not believe what anyone says about these fraudsters, evil are not in the best interest of Children. I went through this first hand with a relative. CASA Uneducated, Greed, not best interest of Children. Close them down!!! I am not referring to the licensed Attorney Ad Litem, this is all the child actually needs. The CASA on our case, lied in reports, biased, discriminated, did not visit Foster homes, abomination. An FBI investigation should be in place fraudulent no experience..

      That's not true they go through extensive training including trauma. Also lot of volunteers are current or retired principles, teachers, school guidance counselors, and so many have once been in the system themselves, and want to give back what was given to them....A VOICE. In addition they are volunteers, they don't get paid any money, the payment is knowing you made a positive difference in a child's life, and that is why people volunteer their time.
