North Idaho CASA

We are getting very excited as our second annual CASA Country Hoedown approaches! Anyone who attended last year's event will remember what a wonderful time it was! This year's event will be taking place on Saturday, July 28th at Settler's Creek, 5803 West Riverview Drive in Coeur d'Alene. The Hoedown will go from 5:00pm until 10:00pm and will include food and games. Some things to look forward to:

COEUR d'ALENE - So small, so sad.

The faces of many of the children featured in a video shown Thursday during North Idaho CASA's annual Ray of Hope breakfast reflected fear, anxiety, despair. Some had no expression - a little girl with a vacant stare, a boy who looked as if he had given up, like he had forgotten how to smile.

"What CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates) does is gives these children a chance," said Sandra Gunn, the nonprofit's director.
