Family Advocates is the only agency in the country that combines the Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) child abuse intervention program with an abuse prevention program called Families First.

Over the last 18 months, Family Advocates has been creating innovative ways to continue serve Treasure Valley children and families in the wake of increased demand for our services and unprecedented funding fluctuations.  Staff and volunteers are discovering unique new ways to adapt to these reali­ties and expand our services.  It’s exciting and we’d like to tell you more about it.

Please email nicoles@familyadvocate.org to rsvp.

Can’t make it, but want to help this wonderful cause?  We’re looking for 100 people to give $25/month or $300 a year for 3 years to grow our early educa­tion/child abuse prevention program.  Please join our pledge to protect month­ly giving program now https://www.familyadvocate.org/ccdonate.aspx.  We cannot keep this vital early education service and other services our Parent Educators provide to Treasure Valley families without funding from people like you.
