Mission: Provide a consistent voice in the courtroom for the abused and neglected children of greene county and to assist the juvenile courts in protecting children's best interest.
Programs: Human services: like all children, children who have been abused and neglected have dreams.

Court appointed special advocates (casas) are special people who stand up for these vulnerable children and help change their lives. The mission of casa of sw missouri is to recruit, train and support community volunteers who assist the court in protecting the best interests of abused and neglected children. During 2017, 7 staff (5 full time, 2 part time) and 101 casa volunteers provided over 9,836 hours of service to 369 children.
