What attracted SVP to Family Law CASA
“We were highly impressed with the level of impact Family Law CASA has on the lives of children – on the most basic level of quality of life. Family Law CASA identified a clear need in the community and matched it to a sound and strong solution – trained volunteers. In addition, it was clear that Family Law CASA was in a position to greatly benefit from the financial and professional expertise of SVP. Through these additional resources, we believed a true partnership would help Family Law CASA more effectively reach their programmatic and organizational goals. Finally, we were attracted to the strong and stable leadership of Family Law CASA. The highly qualified staff and strong and stable leadership assured us that we were making a positive investment.”
