Kansas CASA Association Launches Website for Agency and Local Programs

Hays, KS, September 13, 2009 --(PR.com)-- The Kansas CASA Association, an organization dedicated to helping abused and neglected children in the state (CASA stands for Court Appointed Special Advocate) now has a newly designed, comprehensive website. Found at kansascasa.org, the site is designed to profile the state association, while streamlining information used by all 24 local programs in the state and giving each program their own webpage.

“It is very important that each program have a website, but financial limitations have prevented several of our local programs from developing this important feature,” said Meis. “We were very pleased to provide the opportunity for programs to have a site through www.kansascasa.org.”

Kansas CASA has developed a site that enables individuals to fill out a volunteer application online, make financial contributions to the agency, and easily gather information about the program and ways to assist.

“Our goal was to showcase the state association, provide information about the need for CASA volunteers, and quickly link site visitors to information about their local programs,” said Janette Meis, State Director of the Kansas CASA Association. “The site effectively does this, while also providing information about how to donate, the effectiveness of CASA programs, how to report suspected cases of child abuse, and much more.”

Kansas has CASA programs in 77 counties throughout the state of Kansas providing over 57,000 volunteer hours of service to children in the court system.
