Care Assurance System for the Aging and Homebound (better known as CASA) helps the elderly and disabled preserve their independence and continue living in their own home. CASA services include wheelchair ramps, transportation to medical appointments, installation of grab bars and other adaptive equipment, winterization, minor home repairs, and telephone reassurance. These services are performed by volunteers, under the coordination of professional staff. All CASA services are offered at no cost to clients, although donations are welcomed. CASA serves the aging (age 60 or older) and the homebound (defined as a person who has a condition that restricts his/her ability to leave the home; it generally refers to a person who is bedridden or wheelchair-bound). CASA of Limestone County is a non-profit corporation with 501(c)(3) status and is supported by the United Way and the Combined Federal Campaign (CFC). Donations and fund-raising events provide crucial additional revenue. |
