CASA’s 7th Annual Red Wagon Event Follow the Yellow Brick Road There’s No Place Like Home Friday, April 7th, 2017 6:00 p.m. Fairgrounds Industrial Building There are over 300 kids each year that are appointed to CASA of There’s No Place Like Natrona County, and placed in the foster care system. Like Dorothy, when she first lands in Munchkin Land, these youth are oftentimes forced to navigate the complexities of life on their own. It only takes Home one caring person to change the course of their life for the better. Dorothy’s lucky—she found three! Together they were able to achieve their goal of finding the Emerald City and meeting the Wizard of Oz. CASA of Natrona County matches foster youth with specially trained, court appointed volunteers who provide on-going support, guid- ance and hope. CASA advocates change lives and help ensure our community’s most at-risk youth have a safe place to call home. You will hear stories, much like the Tin Woodman, Cowardly Lion and Scarecrow—from the Foster/ Adoptive Family, CASA Advocate, Guardian ad Litem and most importantly, the child. They all play an im- portant part in the success and outcome of finding a safe place to call HOME. Hear one adoption story through the perspective of everyone on the case. As there were many setbacks and delays in Dorothy’s trip to get home, there are similar delays, struggles and setbacks that can happen before a child in the foster care system is finally able to get back home. “Home is a place we all must find, child. It’s not just a place where you eat or sleep. Home is knowing. Knowing your mind, knowing your heart, knowing your courage. If we know ourselves, we’re always home, anywhere.” ~ Glinda the Good CASA invites you to join us in an evening of laughter, spirit, community and fun. (Dress is casual attire, red shoes encouraged!)
