We now have more than 150 Advocates and work with more than 1,000 of the 9,000 children in foster care in NYC, and our goal is to serve even more. With funds raised from this lunch, we can train and activate additional volunteer Advocates to extend CASA’s crucial role in assisting New York’s overburdened Family Court system in meeting the needs of our city’s most vulnerable children.
Business Attire.
