Testimonials
What CASA Members Are Saying
“When I went along to my first CASA social little did I know it would be a stepping stone for me. I still remember the tremendous welcome I got. That feeling remained with me. I felt so welcome and felt that I had something to give.”
“As a disabled person I always tend to wonder are people seeing me or are they seeing the wheelchair. The fact that I am in a wheelchair is just a fact of life. My friends in CASA, I am glad to say, have always only ever seen …me”.
Embracing the principle of “one to one” helped Jennifer fit in with ease to the CASA family. The friendships Jennifer has made in the CASA family have helped to make her a happy confident person. When asked what CASA has meant to her she replied “Being with my friends”.
