CASA of Santa Cruz County

Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) are community volunteers, just like you, who stand up and speak out to help children and youth in foster care.

Our CASA program belongs to a network of 951 independent community-based programs that recruit, train and support citizen-volunteers to advocate for the best interests of abused and neglected children in courtrooms and communities.

CASA of Santa Cruz County currently serves over 270 children and youth annually – and the need doesn’t go away.

Music Camp International

Transforming Children, Communities and Countries Through the Power of Music

Music Camp International was founded in 2002 by internationally acclaimed children’s music specialist, Connie Fortunato. MCI reaches the disenfranchised children of Romania and Ukraine through an intense Sunday through Friday day camp program in which choral singing and instrumental instruction occurs. After five full days of rehearsals, classes, and instrumental training, all camp participants present a full concert for parents, friends, and civic authorities. In response to the pandemic, we began virtual camps with choir performances. Young people from around the world have been participating! Out of this, a new program has emerged called “Musedics” which is a music program with three options: 1) We work with teachers in – school by having our Master Teachers working virtually to a classroom of students and their regular teacher; 2) Our Master Teachers work virtually in after-school programs in “micro music hubs” with up to eight students and an advisor; and 3) Our Master Teachers work virtually with Individual young people learning in the privacy of their home.
