Board Leadership
Board of Directors
CASA of Peoria County's Board of Directors is comprised of community and business leaders who serve as ambassadors in the community, speaking on behalf of the CASA program. One of their many responsibilities is to serve as a conduit of information about the on-going need for philanthropic support. The board is also responsible for producing a community benefit report and financial report, and is ultimately accountable for the proper management of all personal gifts.
Each board member is active on one or more of our sub-committees to ensure the organization's mission and program goals are being followed. CASA of Peoria County promotes and encourages funds and donations. The board oversees all investments, contributions, gifts, and bequests made to the organization from the general public and corporations.
