Warrick County Casa, Inc. is a non-profit organization registered in SAM.gov with a primary focus on child advocacy within the judicial system. Located in Boonville, Indiana, the organization is dedicated to representing the best interests of children involved in juvenile court proceedings, particularly those who have been adjudicated as children in need of services.

Through federal grant sub-awards from the Judiciary Courts of the State of Indiana, Warrick County Casa, Inc. provides critical child advocacy services by recruiting, screening, and training volunteer child advocates who work directly within the court system. Their grant-funded activities include supporting full-time employees who train and supervise volunteers, enabling these advocates to represent children from birth through 21 years of age who are involved in abuse or neglect cases. The organization has received consecutive annual grants, with recent awards on October 1, 2022 and October 1, 2024, focused on payroll expenses, volunteer training, and professional development initiatives. These grants also support additional professional development opportunities such as the Indiana State CASA Conference and Bridges Out of Poverty training certification, which allows their staff to become certified trainers who can support advocates and community members in understanding and addressing poverty-related challenges affecting vulnerable children and families.
