âThereâs so many members of our community who have put their trust in me and they gave me their items to make sure that those items got out to families in need in our community,â said Shanna Bordelon.

New non-profit for victims services formed as part of agreement
New Harrison County CASA volunteers sworn in By John Fitzhugh | January 28, 2021 at 7:16 PM CST - Updated January 28 at 7:20 PM
HARRISON COUNTY, Miss. (WLOX) - A months-long rift between the Harrison County Youth Court and the advocacy group CASA has been resolved.
Judge Mike Dickinson swore in 24 CASA volunteers Thursday and already appointed two on cases. The others will be re-appointed to the cases they were working on in September when the dispute began.
CASA is Court Appointed Special Advocates. The organization is a non-profit, made up of staff and volunteers who review legal cases brought by Mississippi Child Protective Services. In September, the judge barred members of Harrison County CASA from his courtroom until changes were made.
