Every child deserves a safe, permanent home. CASA of Clackamas County helps get them there. To learn more about becoming a CASA volunteer, call 503-723-0521.

CASA of Clackamas County works closely with from the Clackamas County Dependency Court to ensure parents, attorneys, DHS, service providers and the court fulfill their responsibilities to the child. However, CASA of Clackamas County is an independent agency with separate roles and responsibilities to the children we all jointly serve.

This week, we are proud to shine our Board Member Spotlight on Dr. Julia Barnes. Dr. Barnes has called West Linn home since 2013 and has spent the last two decades serving families right here in Clackamas County as a senior physician in Obstetrics and Gynecology at NW Permanente. In addition to her demanding medical practice, she serves as a physician leader in her clinic and works closely with recruiting to ensure our local community receives the highest quality of healthcare.

She also brings a strong passion for systemic advocacy to our team, having participated in both state and federal legislative days to speak directly with lawmakers about critical healthcare issues. Through her work as an OB/GYN, she deeply understands the profound impact that abuse and neglect can have on young women and mothers. We are incredibly grateful to have her unique expertise, leadership, and ongoing dedication on our Board of Directors as we work together to support local youth in foster care. Please join us in the comments in thanking Dr. Barnes for everything she does for our mission.

For this week's volunteer spotlight, we are thrilled to introduce you to Karin! We want to say a huge thank you to Karin for her incredible dedication and heart for children in our community. We are so grateful to have you on our team!

With a background and early career focus dedicated to working with children, Karin always knew her heart belonged to this work. Though life took her on different paths over the years, approaching retirement brought her back to her original passion. Having always heard what a wonderful program CASA of Clackamas County is, she knew it was the perfect place to put her education and experience to use for families who need it most.
For Karin, the true reward comes from the steady consistency of the role, simply seeing her CASA kids month after month and watching them grow and develop.

Advocacy is teamwork, and some of her most gratifying moments happen behind the scenes. Whenever a parent, caseworker, or attorney takes a moment to point out how her insights have been helpful or significant to the case, it reinforces a vital truth: the work of a CASA matters deeply, and our advocates are just as important as every other party at the table.

At CASA of Clackamas County, our advocates spend their time listening to youth and offering steady, guiding support. A single conversation can truly change a child's perspective on their future. We want to hear from you: What is a piece of advice or encouragement someone gave you that you’ve never forgotten? Share it with us in the comments below!

When a child enters foster care, they are often faced with a dizzying blur of new faces: new caseworkers, new foster homes, new schools, and new judges.

But you can change that narrative. As a CASA volunteer, you are assigned to just one child or sibling group. You stick with them throughout the entirety of their case. While systems shift and homes change, you remain the steady, reliable anchor they can count on.

You don't need a background in social work to offer stability. You just need to show up. Our next online information session is Thursday, November 19. Click here to learn more: https://www.casa-cc.org/orientations

This week, we are so proud to introduce you to Pat, another incredible advocate making a difference for children in Clackamas County! We want to say a huge thank you to Pat for her amazing dedication and for always showing up for youth in our community. We are so grateful to have you on our team!

Pat first learned about the CASA program from a family member in law enforcement. Hearing how CASAs help kids navigate their toughest moments deeply resonated with her and inspired her to get involved. Today, Pat knows exactly what it means "to be a constant" for a child in foster care. With so many different people moving in and out of their lives, Pat makes it her mission to show up consistently and let them know she will always be in their corner.

While advocacy takes heart, the rewards are unforgettable. One of Pat’s most meaningful moments came during a final visit as a case was closing, when a child looked at her and told her how much they would miss her visits.

When she isn’t volunteering, you can usually find Pat out on the trails, hiking and soaking in the beautiful scenery of the Pacific Northwest.

To anyone considering becoming an advocate, Pat’s advice is simple: "Your heart will grow as you get to know these kids and advocate for them."
