Congratulations to our Riverside County CASA of the Month, Dr. Cynthia A.! 🥳  After relocating to Riverside County, Cynthia became one of the first to serve children through our partnership with the Pechanga Band of Indians. She built a strong, trusting bond with two young brothers, remaining involved even after the case closed at the judge’s request—an incredible testament to her impact.

CASA Cynthia then began advocating for Iris*, a 13-year-old who had experienced significant trauma and needed a constant, caring adult in her life. From hospital visits and school meetings to fun outings and phone check-ins, CASA Cynthia has been a steady presence in Iris’s journey toward healing and growth.

Most recently, CASA Cynthia stepped up when she was asked to support siblings from the Pechanga Band of Indians struggling with significant mental health needs. Understanding their fear and hesitation to trust, CASA Cynthia is creating a safe, nurturing space where they are beginning to feel heard, supported, and seen.

CASA Cynthia’s journey is a powerful reminder that CASA advocacy is about more than court reports—it’s about consistency, compassion, and showing up, no matter what. Learn more about her CASA journey and the transformative advocacy she provides to youth in foster care  👉 https://buff.ly/DlQo643
