Our Guest Speaker, Josiah Brown, is Executive Director of Connecticut CASA (https://www.connecticutcasa.org/), which is part of the national CASA network. CASA addresses the needs of children facing abuse and/or neglect and in need of court-appointed special advocates. Prior to working at CASA, Josiah has worked for the Yale-New Haven Teachers’ Institute, as an aide to U.S. Representative Rosa DeLauro, worked for UConn Upward Bound and for ConnPIRG. He has volunteered with various urban youth organizations and public schools--including as a member of the New Haven Public Schools' Community Engagement Team.

Mr. Brown will be joined by Dwayne Jackson, a CASA volunteer from Meriden, Conn.
