Greg Bar- reto to talk about the CASA program and the number of children currently served. CASAs are trained vol- unteers who advocate for children in foster care to find a safe and permanent home. “It was my first time going to the Capitol and it was a privilege to meet with Sen. Hansell and Rep. Bar- reto, and share with them my experience as a CASA for the past 12 years,” said Shockman. “There are over a hun- dred children in Morrow and Umatilla counties that are not served by CASA,” said Rome. “There is a great need for additional funding to train and recruit more volunteers to be the voice for children in foster care.” The Umatilla-Morrow CASA program is housed within Umatilla Morrow Head Start. Community members interested in learning about CASA should visit the UMCHS website at umchs. org or contact Jesus Rome at 541-564-6878.
