Do you know a local business serving residents of Bergen County?
What drives someone to become a voice for children who have been thrust into the foster care system? Jennifer Heit from Bergen CASA joins us with a compelling narrative about the crucial role that Court Appointed Special Advocates play in the lives of children removed from their homes due to abuse or neglect. You’ll hear firsthand how Jennifer’s journey from volunteer to Business Development Manager has equipped her with unique insights into the transformative impact that dedicated CASA volunteers have on ensuring these children receive the support they desperately need. Through her stories, discover how these advocates become pillars of stability, providing not only continuity in care but also detailed reports about each child’s specific needs to help them find a permanent, loving home.
Reflecting on my own path to becoming a CASA volunteer, I share a personal story of rediscovering my community connections after a transformative year abroad during the COVID-19 pandemic. I open up about the rewarding yet challenging journey of attending information sessions, undergoing training, and eventually being assigned cases that require not just commitment but also strong communication and relationship-building skills. Find out why you don’t need a social work background to make a profound difference in a foster child’s life and how our collective efforts at Bergen CASA aim to serve every child in need across the county. Join us for an inspiring conversation that underscores the power of advocacy and the lasting impact one person can truly make.
