About PARACHUTE |
We recruit, train and supervise community volunteers who act as advocates for abused, neglected and abandoned children (ages birth -18) who are involved in the juvenile justice and foster care systems of Butler County.
Child Abuse is serious. In 2012 ...
* 4 children died every day in the U.S. due to abuse or severe neglect.
* more than 2,000 reports of child abuse and neglect were investigated in Butler County.
* over 400 local children were removed from their homes and placed in protective custody.
* more than 1,000 court hearings were held in Butler County to determine the safety and best interest of 700 children.
PARACHUTE staff and CASA volunteers are active in providing input on critical issues about these innocent children's needs for safety, security and services to promote healing from their trauma.
Children who are victims of abuse face major barriers and CASA volunteers provide a voice to help improve each child's future.
With YOUR HELP an abused child can be safe from danger, establish permanency and have the chance to thrive.
By joining in the Park Run for PARACHUTE, YOU will make a difference for a child !
