CASA Social Media
One way to “advocate” for our community’s abused and neglected children is to help spread CASA’s mission.
Heartland CASA invites you to stay connected with events, donor thank yous, volunteer opportunities, recommendations for positive parent-child interactions, and more through our social media outlets. Like, share, and comment on our posts to help Macon County and surrounding communities understand why 630 local foster children need a voice.

Thank You, Joy Assembly Church!
We are so thankful to Joy Assembly Church for welcoming Heartland CASA and giving us the opportunity to share the CASA mission with your church family.
So many times, we feel that tug on our heart — that sense that we’re called to serve — but we’re not always sure what that’s supposed to look like or where to start. If you have a heart for children and a desire to make a difference, there is a way to step in.
Right now, hundreds of children in our communities are walking through one of the hardest seasons of their lives. They are navigating abuse, neglect, and the court system, and they need a trusted, consistent adult to walk beside them, to listen, to show up, and to speak up for them when it matters most. That role doesn’t require perfection — just a willing heart.
Heartland CASA will be sharing during the Sunday sermon at Joy Assembly Church in Stonington, Illinois on Sunday, March 1st at 10:30 a.m. We’re looking forward to spending time with the faith community and talking about how ordinary people can do something extraordinary for local children in foster care.
If you’d like someone to speak at your church, or if you just want to have a one-on-one conversation about what serving might look like for you, please reach out to Lori McDaniel at lmcdaniel@iheartcasa.org, call 217-428-8424, or drop a comment below and Lori will connect with you.
Together, we can show children that they are seen, valued, and not alone.

What an incredible evening in Moultrie County!
Thursday evening, Heartland CASA hosted our very first CASA & Coffee informational session since expanding into Moultrie County in May 2025—and wow, our hearts are FULL.
The turnout was so moving that it brought our Recruitment Manager Lori McDaniel and Advocate Supervisors Olivia Hughes and Stepheni Hall to tears. We were truly overwhelmed by the number of people who showed up with a desire and willingness to help children in their own community who need it most.
A huge THANK YOU to Sweet Vail Café and Susie Inman for hosting us, to Sawyer for being the best barista, and to everyone who attended and showed up with open hearts. THIS is how change begins!
Moultrie County training class dates will be announced soon—stay tuned!!
