Voices for Children - Howard County Charity Profile
Voices for Children was incorporated as a non-profit organization in September 1990 in response to legislation passed by the Maryland State Assembly authorizing state support for such a program. Since our inception we have helped expedite the placement of over 400 Howard County children into safe and permanent homes.
They recruit and train community volunteers to become children's advocates. Their primary role is to speak up for abused and neglected children in court. Since the first program in Maryland began in 1987, CASA programs have trained thousands of volunteers who assist abused and neglected children.
