New York — The National
Council of Jewish Women has re-
ceived an unsolicited federal
grant from the Department of
Health and Human Services for
further implementation of its
Court Appointed Special Advo-
cate (CASA) project. The grant,
totalling $83,892, will be funded
through the Office of Human De-
velopment Services (OHDS).
CASA is a program in which
trained volunteers are appointed
by judges to be independent advo-
cates for children in the foster
care system. Currently, NCJW
maintains 15 CASA sites in the
United States, including Detroit.
NCJW also has received the
1984 AVA National Service
Award for its State Public Affairs
Network (SPAN) from the Asso-
ciation for Volunteer Administra-
tion. The award is given annually
to a national organization for its
efforts in the field of volun-
teerism.
