Individual & Family Services - Modesto, California, United States
THE NEEDMore than 500,000 children live in foster care in the United States. These children were abused or neglected and then removed from their families and the place they called home. Sadly, many can become a victim a second time in an overwhelmed child welfare system that does not allow for close attention to each child and their needs or wants. Each day in California, 70 children who have been abused or neglected join the state's population of nearly 80,000 children in foster care. California is home to nearly one-fifth of all foster children in the United States. In Stanislaus County, there are over 500 children in Foster Care at any given time. If you were to count the children in guardianship or kinship, the number would swell to over 1,200. As dependents of the juvenile court, these children pass through a court system which can leave them frightened, confused and alone. CASA is a Non-Profit 501c3 Our Tax ID # 91-2168629
