| About us | CASA of Northeast Ky, Inc. was started in 2000 by the Honorable George Davis, III and Foster Care Review Board Chair Christy Reaves. The legal community embraced the program by donating office space, equipment and supplies to get the program operational. National CASA approved membership and awarded the first operational grant, and staff was hired. Many community members have volunteered in an advisory capacity serving on the Board of Directors and various committees. Today, we are self-sufficient through various fundraisers and grants. We employ three (3) full-time staff, and utilize work study programs through local colleges and universities while also accepting practicum students for their coursework requirements. Today, the CASA offices are located in the Boyd and Carter County Courthouses. |
