Media Advisory

EVERETT, Wash./EWORLDWIRE/July 26, 2008 --- According to the Child Welfare League of America (http://www.cwla.org), over half a million children are in foster care, placed there because of parental abuse or neglect. Only about half of these children eventually receive a high school diploma and two percent of them get a college degree. Up to half of them become unemployed.

"These kids are in dire need of help and the CASA Volunteer Guardian ad Litem program is one way that people can get involved," said Gregerson, host of the program. People won't know what they can do unless someone tells them - my guest, Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) Volunteer Guardian Ad LItem, Jennifer Hawkins will give them that information. Foster children need our help and they need it now!"

An archive will be available after the show and listeners can subscribe to the archives via the RSS feed on the host page. Read more about the host at Gregerson's Web site ('http://www.judygregerson.com') .
