Sports include baseball, basketball, flag football, soccer, volleyball, tennis, bowling and more. Other fitness activities are offered to keep athletes active all year round. Social outings, educational classes and other recreational activities are also offered through the Challenger program. Challenger activities are supported by coaches and by a buddy system in which volunteers assist participants when needed. Coaches and buddies get to know each Challenger athlete and adapt each activity to meet their needs and abilities. Social interaction among players and buddies often gives players a completely new outlet for communication and exchange. Over the years, long-lasting friendships have been forged through the Challenger Program. We've found that the players aren't the only ones who benefit. Another exciting component of the Challenger program is our Fred and Shirley Pryor Sports Complex, an adaptive outdoor recreational facility for sports and play. The smooth, even surfaces remove barriers and ensure that everyone can be part of the game. The playground includes ramps and equipment designed to accommodate wheelchairs, walkers and other devices. Interested in learning more? Contact our program director Raegan Schurr.

We have just completed our most successful year in Jackson County CASA history -- expanding capacity to serve 1,056 children in 2014. More than 370 volunteers advocated for these children with extraordinary results: o 100 children were adopted by new, permanent families or placed with permanent guardians. o 114 children were safely reunified with their biological parents. o Every child received the time and attention of a dedicated CASA Volunteer, who advocated for the best possible placement for that child, while working to find a safe, permanent home. While they remain under Court jurisdiction, our CASA volunteers made sure our children received the medical, therapeutic, and educational services they desperately need. Despite these efforts, hundreds of children remain on a waiting list for our services. Right now there are nearly 2,400 children under Court jurisdiction in Jackson County due to abuse and neglect, and 600-800 new cases are referred to the Court every year. Our goal for 2015 is to fund the staff and systems to expand our capacity to serve more than 1,200 of these children.
