About us...

Piedmont CASA was formed in 2000 to recruit, train and supervise volunteers who provide a voice for foster children in Juvenile Court in Barrow Jackson and Banks Counties. It is a non-profit governed by a Board of Directors comprised of community volunteers. The Board raises funds through an annual fundraiser, CASAblanca, a casino night in March of each year (see link), and through other events.  We need your donations in this recession to continue the expansion of our services to children (Click here).
