CASA of NELA would like to honor Debra Minton for the dedication she has shown our program for the past 2.5 years. During this time, Debra has worked on 2 different cases, serving a total of 4 children. Debra was committed to consistency and detailed advocacy. Debra made it a point to attend all monthly meetings with her CASA children, attend all hearings, and supplied the court with superb court reports detailing concerns and needs of the children. Debra was able to build strong relationships with collaterals and communicated with them regularly to get updates.

CASA staff who have had the pleasure of supervising Debra describe her as “a joy to work with”. They state that she “is truly a wonderful advocate for all the children she has served”. In her time as a CASA volunteer, we know Debra has done life-changing work. We are grateful for her time and commitment over the past years and know the children who have had her as their advocate are all the better for it.

Thanks, Debra, for all you have given to our program and the children you have served. We appreciate you!
