The Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) program in El Dorado County relies on volunteers and donations to provide advocates for abused and neglected children and youth in foster care. CASA volunteers build relationships with the children and their parents to better help the judge make decisions concerning their futures.

CASA protects children, like Annie (right), who have no one else to protect them. Read Annie's story here.

Each day, 3,300 women wake up in America believing abortion is the only realistic solution to an unplanned pregnancy. In this tragic decision, not only is a human life snuffed out, but a woman’s life is changed forever. Many have worked for years in the legal and public policy spheres to put an end to abortion. Care Net, however, seeks a more immediate route by supporting one woman at a time, to spare her and her unborn child the anguish of abortion. While legal efforts will continue for years to come, hundreds of lives are being saved everyday in and through the work of pregnancy centers.

The ultimate aim of Care Net and its network of pregnancy centers is to share the love and truth of Jesus Christ in both word and deed. As a result, the hearts of women and men are being changed by Christ's love to desire positive and healthy choices. In addition, those struggling with past abortions are finding God's healing and forgiveness.
