Congratulations to our San Diego County CASA of the Month, Janet! 🥳 Before entering foster care, 11-year-old Makenna* was carrying adult responsibilities, acting as the primary caregiver for her toddler brother. Forced to grow up, she rarely had the chance to experience the carefree joy of just being a child.
That changed when she met her Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA), Janet. When an opportunity arose for Makenna to attend an equestrian sleepaway camp, CASA Janet made it her personal mission to ensure she didn't miss it. Even when an unexpected move to an emergency shelter threatened to ruin the plans right before departure, CASA Janet spent countless hours clearing administrative hurdles, organizing medical forms, and arranging transport so Makenna could step away from adult worries and just be a kid for a week. 🐴 🏕️
Thank you, CASA Janet, for proving to youth in foster care that their happiness is worth fighting for!
