every abused and/or neglected child by providing
a highly trained volunteer to advocate for them in
the court system.

These kids are happy, smiling

20 years . . . and taking it further
E
very one of us has experienced a time when
everything changes—turning points in life
that distinguish everything that came before
from everything that came after. Whether tragic or
triumphant, these moments are so profound that we
often mark the passage of time against them and tell
our life stories through them.
For children in the dependency court system, losing
a parent, suffering abuse, or being removed from their
home easily becomes just such a moment. And for
hundreds of these children each year, they also have a
far more positive point in time.
It’s the day when they’re paired with a champion
of their own, a Court Appointed Special Advocate
(CASA).
This, after all, is when they acquire a voice—one that
speaks to their interests . . . and their interests alone.
From that voice, the court and the community gain a
better understanding of these young people, from their
steepest challenges to their most cherished ambitions.
CASA annual report 2014.indd 4
Advocacy sets in motion all sorts of life changes,
from medical and mental health treatment to special
education to the loving embrace of permanent homes.
Since 1995, CASA of Santa Barbara County has been
the only local agency with volunteers appointed by the
dependency court to do this. And in that time, it has
enjoyed countless periods of growth and success.
Several years ago, the CASA board and staff
considered where we were, and where we wanted to
be. We committed to the vision of serving every child.
We recognized that if we were to not just survive but
also further the CASA mission and meet our obligation
to serve every child, we would have to become rooted
in, driven by, and, in no small way, owned by the
community itself.
Throughout our twenty years of service to abused
and neglected children, the community—from
individuals to corporations to community partners—
has responded passionately to this call to action, so
we set our goals of expanding to meet the needs of the
10/3/14 12:22 PM
children. And once again, the community
responded. By fiscal year end 2014,
more volunteers and more donors than
ever are involved with and invested in
the organization. And with that boost
in commitment, CASA of Santa Barbara
County— no less than an instrument of the
community—provided intensive advocacy
to 375 children, a record for our program
and 56 more children than just a year
before.
But the greatest part of this story of
evolution is that the best of CASA of Santa
Barbara County is yet to come.
Thanks to your support, the vision
—KIM COLBY DAVIS
Executive Director
CASA annual report 2014.indd 5
of providing a CASA to every child who
needs one now seems within reach.
Because besides being a microcosm of
the community, CASA of Santa Barbara
County is now an outright expression
of the community’s will to care for its
children. This year could be our turning
point, the year when children are no
longer put on a waiting list for months,
in hopes of being paired with their
champion.
Only our collective commitment to that
vision limits how far we can take it.
Let’s take it further.

What do CASA
volunteers do?
● They donate their time to act as
the independent eyes and ears of
the court, investigate to learn what
is in the best interest of the child,
and speak solely in the interest of
the child.
● They undergo special training and
become sworn officers of the court.
● They work with the most severe
cases of abuse and neglect.
● They monitor kids’ health and
education.
● They identify the unmet needs of
children.
● They advocate for a child
or siblings and make objective
recommendations to judges insuring
that the welfare of the children is
the number one priority in decisionmaking.

From Chaos to College
Planning: one child’s story
A
melia* is a young lady
who never really had
the chance to be a
child. It’s difficult to say that
she was removed from her
home, since Amelia and her
younger sister never had a
place to call home in the first
place. When she entered foster
care, Amelia was a 12-year-old
who had endured a lifetime
of abuse and instability. With
each of her mother’s new
boyfriends came a move to a
new home, each progressively
worse than the previous, all
riddled with the nightmare
of domestic violence and
substance abuse.
Amelia told her volunteer
Court Appointed Special
Advocate (CASA) that with
each move her mother would
promise a new beginning.
Unfortunately, each was
just another chapter in her
mother’s book of alcoholism
and mental illness.
Amelia thought she was the
cause of the fighting, and tried
her best to always be good,
but she never could really
be “good enough.” As time
*Name and photograph are fictitious.

went on, Amelia became
the caretaker of her baby
sister and the target of the
boyfriend’s rage. Finally, a
neighbor called to report
concern for the children
during another loud and
angry argument. When
the police responded to
her home, they found a
desperate Amelia hiding
with her sister under a
filthy trailer as her mother
ranted around the yard in
psychiatric despair. Amelia
did not cry as she was taken
away to live in a home with
strangers—until she was
separated from her little
sister.
CASA annual report 2014.indd 15
Amelia was bright and
insightful beyond her years,
but she bore the scars of
her past. She was distant
and distrustful of everyone.
Amelia told her CASA that
while she knew she was safe
in foster care, she didn’t
like living with people who
really didn’t know or care
about her.
Slowly, Amelia began
to look forward to her
CASA’s visits, which were
the first consistent thing in
Amelia’s life. Her CASA was
interested in Amelia; they
went places together, they
talked about school, friends,
and plans for the future.
Her CASA took Amelia to
court and told the judge
about how she felt about
her mother, about living in
a foster home that was not
right for her, how much
she missed her little sister,
and about her plans to go
to college. Amelia told her
CASA that she was the first
person to ever really get to
know her.
Because you support
CASA of Santa Barbara
County, Amelia’s Court
Appointed Special Advocate
was able to fight to change
Amelia’s life. Her CASA
worked with Social Services
to find the right family for
Amelia. Now Amelia has a
family who is not only
committed to her, but to
maintaining her connection
to her sister.
Amelia is in high school
now, and continues to plan
for college. She and her
CASA meet every week—
and it’s a visit Amelia looks
forward to, because they are
connected. Amelia is now
15 years old with a bright
future ahead of her—one
that would not have been
possible without her CASA,
and supporters like you. n
