Current Initiatives Include:
- KARA effort to provide $120,000 Google Ad Grants to CASA organizations (free at the basic level). Share this with your CASA contacts.
- KARA is raising awareness about the plight of abused and neglected children in Minnesota and in communities across the country. We do this by actively educating and informing the public through social media, and creating conversations about the need for support for children who are victims of child abuse and neglect and the agencies that help them. We promote transparency with government agency oversight and reporting and raise awareness about the lack thereof. KARA is a resource for information about Child Protection and abused and neglected children. We have a large library of reports, videos and information to help understand, address and implement solutions to these critical issues.
