CASA CIS

A great evening with the team from The Joyce Agency at The Meredith House, joined by our Executive Director, Kristen Dobbyn.

As the winning bidders of The Meredith House dinner experience at the CASA CIS Evening Under the Stars 2025 auction, The Joyce Agency team enjoyed an evening of outstanding hospitality, conversation, and connection.

We are grateful for their support of CASA CIS and our mission to advocate for children and families in our community. Thank you to The Meredith House for hosting such a memorable experience and to The Joyce Agency for helping make our work possible.

We are delighted to welcome you to our annual Evening Under the Stars gala, a formal evening of philanthropy, celebration, and inspiration in support of abused and neglected children in our community.

Join us at the beautiful Westfields Marriott on Friday, September 25, 2026, from 5:30pm to 11pm, for a memorable night with a touch of superhero charm. Guests are invited to embrace their inner hero with elegant evening attire and a subtle superhero-inspired flair.

The special evening is a celebration of the everyday heroes who uplift our community through compassion, generosity, and service. Together, we will shine a light on the power of hope and the impact we can have on the life of a child.

Yesterday, we had the honor of attending the swearing-in ceremony for our three newest advocates. This class was small and purposeful, allowing us to introduce the state's newly rolled-out training program with care and intention. It was a tremendous success! A heartfelt thank you to our board members, Pam Moody and Brad Marshall, for coming out to show their continued support.

Last night, our Executive Director, Kristen Dobbyn, and Program Director, Megan Ozuna, had the honor of attending the Beat the Odds Celebration and Awards Banquet alongside one of our dedicated advocates, Jim Beasley.

Each year, with the generous financial support of the Prince William County Bar Foundation and community partners, $40,000 in scholarships and awards are presented to deserving youth who have overcome tremendous adversity. CASA CIS is proud to sponsor one of the scholarships awarded during this inspiring event, in honor of our former Executive Director, Linda Krieg.

These remarkable young people have faced challenges including abuse, neglect, substance abuse, mental health struggles, truancy, and involvement with the juvenile justice system, yet they continue to persevere and succeed.

Award recipients are nominated by guidance counselors, probation officers, case workers, and other caring professionals who recognize their resilience, determination, and growth. The annual banquet provides an inspiring opportunity for the community to celebrate and support these outstanding youth and their accomplishments.

The evening was especially meaningful as the young man Jim has advocated for over the past four years received an award. Witnessing the impact of long-term advocacy and support was a powerful reminder of why this work matters.

We were grateful to join community leaders and partners at Amazon’s Rise & Recognize: A Community Impact Gathering last week! It was an inspiring event focused on collaboration, service, and the collective efforts shaping stronger communities across Loudoun and Prince William counties.

It was incredible to connect with organizations dedicated to meaningful change and to celebrate the recipients of the 2026 Amazon Community Funds. Events like these are a powerful reminder of what can happen when nonprofits, businesses, and local partners come together with a shared purpose.

A sincere thank you to Amazon.com and the Prince William County Community Foundation for hosting such a thoughtful and impactful gathering. We’re proud to be part of a community committed to creating positive, lasting change.

We are incredibly grateful to share that more than $100,000 was raised for CASA CIS through BION’s Charity Golf Classic!

What made this event so special wasn’t just the competition or the prizes, but the incredible community behind it. From generous sponsors to the players who showed up and gave it their all, every contribution helped move this effort forward.

While we love celebrating the winners and their well-earned prizes, the true winners are the children we serve every day. These funds will directly support the children served by CASA. Thank you to BION and everyone who helped make this year’s Charity Golf Classic such a meaningful success!

We were honored to be part of this year’s Sexual Assault Symposium and to stand alongside so many dedicated organizations working to support survivors in our community. Thank you to ACTS for hosting such an impactful event and creating space for connection, education, and awareness.

It was a privilege to share our resources, connect with attendees, and collaborate with partners who are equally committed to promoting safety, healing, and prevention. Thank you, ACTS!

Our annual Advocate Appreciation Picnic was definitely a chilly one this year, but that didn’t stop us from coming together and celebrating the people who make our work possible!

We are so thankful for the dedicated advocates who give their time, energy, and compassion to support children in our community. Their commitment is truly what keeps our organization going. We couldn't do this work without them!

We had an amazing time at this year’s SperryFest - Sperryville's Annual Spring Festival, celebrating community, connection, and the incredible organizations that make a difference every day.

We’re grateful to be part of such a vibrant and supportive community!
