Will you take me home? These are the words that a Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) hears when working with children in the foster system. A CASA is assigned to a child to represent the voice and advocate what is best for the child. It is a volunteer position, and with over 650,00 kids in the foster system, it is a position that is growing in demand every year.  As you will hear in the episode, a CASA is a special kind of person with an open heart and an open mind. Jayne has created this podcast to help share the stories of kids who have been through the system.  Jayne is doing great work in this space, illuminating stories that otherwise stayed untold. This episode will open the window into a world that very few of us see or understand.
