Dwayne Jackson, already featured (with ambassadors Miye Oni and Brandon Sherrod) on CASA of Southern Connecticut's new YouTube channel (please subscribe and share), has now been interviewed by journalist James Walker for his podcast.

Mr. Jackson makes a compelling case for the role that men and women can play as CASA volunteers for the best interests of children who have experienced abuse or neglect.

The Day of New London reported on CASA of Southern Connecticut's new national grant--and on the commitment of volunteers like Karen Bergin.  Though such specific preparation is not expected of a CASA volunteer, she happens to be a retired education advocate as well as a former foster parent and an adoptive parent.  A New London resident, she is driving as needed to New Haven in order to serve children here until the CASA movement grows to the southeastern corner of the state.
