The bill aims to expand the Court-Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) program and allocate funds for its implementation. The CASA program provides trained volunteers to advocate for children in the foster care system. This expansion will enhance support for vulnerable children by increasing the number of CASA volunteers and improving their effectiveness in court proceedings. The appropriation included in the bill will help meet the growing demand for these services and ensure better outcomes for children involved in the child welfare system.
