Giving New Hampshire’s abused children a voice in court, CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates) volunteers advocate in New Hampshire’s courts for the best interests of abused and neglected children, so they can grow up in safe, permanent homes.

Join us for 1 Book 1 Valley’s third program related to themes in this year’s book, The Talk-Funny Girl on Wednesday, October 2 at 7 pm at the Cook Memorial Library in Tamworth. Representatives from CASA-NH will speak about child advocacy, why it’s important and how their program works.
