CASA Volunteer of the Month – Dana and Kathy Crow

Each month, Child Advocates of Northeast Oklahoma (CANO) celebrates the advocacy of one of our
CASA volunteers. This month, we have the unique opportunity to celebrate the service of Dana and
Kathy Crow. Dana and Kathy serve alongside one another as volunteer advocates in Ottawa County.
The Crows have spent their entire lives dedicated to improving the lives of children. Dana was a teacher
for 40 years while Kathy has been in the community mental health field for 38 years. They both have an
obvious love and passion for working with children, improving their lives, and leading them towards
successful lives.
Serving as a CASA volunteer is no walk in the park. In one case the Crows have served on, the children
were scattered across the state, some being an hour and a half away. Allocating time to visit each child
has been the biggest hurdle in their volunteering. And yet, their efforts are well worth it.
The Crows have seen the fruit of their labor as the children are in the process of reuniting with their
mother. In fact, that has been the biggest reward they have experienced. When children go back to their
parents and into a safe, loving home, there can be no better outcome.
When asked what they would tell someone considering becoming a CASA volunteer the Crows said,
“You can’t find a more rewarding endeavor.” We couldn’t agree more. The work of a CASA is difficult,
but changing the trajectory of a child’s life and story is well worth the effort. As an organization, we are
lucky to have faithful volunteers like the Crows serving the precious children in our community.
