O’Brien is named CASA board member

Robert O’Brien has been named to the CASA for Clermont Kids! – Court Appointed Special Advocates for Children board.

CASA For Clermont Kids! is a local non-profit agency that is working to improve the lives of abused, neglected and dependent children of Clermont County.

CASA trains community volunteers to become guardians ad litem (GALs) within the juvenile court system to represent the best interests of children who are the victims of abuse and neglect.

CASA/GALs are the voice of the child in the courtroom and the eyes and ears of the court outside of the courtroom.

CASA volunteers are ordinary people. They work along side attorneys, social workers and other professionals as appointed officials of the court. The mission of CASA For Clermont Kids! is to assure permanence in a safe, loving family where the child/children can be respected and establish the dignity that all children deserve.
