Family & Children's Service


For the past two years, 2004 and 2005, the Bal d'Hiver has organized “Backpackin’ Back” service projects with Family and Children’s Service. Both years, the Bal d’Hiver court worked together to organize over 20 backpacks stuffed with goodies for Third graders who are part of the Relative Caregiver Program. Children in this program are all being raised by extended family members such as aunts, uncles, and grandparents.

Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA)
 
In 2004, CASA served 806 of the 2600 abused children in Nashville. The only way they can serve more is with additional volunteers. In June 2004, CASA moved into their new (and larger) home, the CASA House on Woodland Street. If anyone is interested in being a CASA volunteer, please call (615) 862-8031 or go to http://www.casa-nashville.org.
