As part of Boston CASA’s commitment to effectively and intentionally serve children, youths, and families across Suffolk and Middlesex Counties. The Multicultural Advisory Committee (MAC) was created to ensure Boston CASA is held to the highest standard in conjunction to the overall CASA work, to meet the mission of promoting and protecting the best interests of children and youth who have experienced abuse and neglect.
We believe that community voices—especially those from historically marginalized communities—are essential to shaping how we show up in the lives of the children and families we serve.
Our MAC is comprised of 8-10 community members, from CASAs, to foster parents, to community organizations who have a 1 year commitment in supporting Boston CASA in raising awareness in the community about Boston CASA, diversifying our pool of volunteers to meet the needs of the youths and families we serve, as well as provide support and resources around cultural humility and cultural competency among CASAs and staff.
We accept applications for members on a yearly basis beginning in January. If you are interested in being a part of our MAC, you may submit an application at the link below.
