Three Programs, One Mission:

To help Nevada County’s children grow up safe, secure, and ready for the future.

Child Advocates of Nevada County provides emotional and practical support to help children overcome trauma and isolation caused by abuse and neglect so that they can rise to their potential.

Using the best practices of CASA and Healthy Families America, along with a fun and engaging puppet show program, we model healthy relationships and provide respectful, caring mentorship. We lift lives by helping others to recognize and build on their strengths.
