Morrow County resident Sarah-Anne Kendrick was sworn
in by Judge Terry Tallman as a Court Appointed Special
Advocate (CASA) recently. The mission of CASA of Umatilla-
Morrow County is for trained volunteers to advocate for safe,
permanent loving homes for all children in foster care. At
this time Sarah-Anne Kendrick is the only CASA in Morrow
County advocating for children in foster care. Research
indicates that children with CASA volunteers get more help
while in the system and spend less time in foster care. Moreover,
children with CASA volunteers do better in school and are
less likely to be bounced from home to home. If you would
like to hear more about CASA or become a CASA in Morrow
County, contact Jesus Rome at Lmatilla-Morrow Head Start,
