Voices for Children recently hosted the fourth annual Uplifting Voices. Guests enjoyed light bites, cocktails, and the breathtaking ocean views of Del Mar as the organization celebrates 45 years of vital work providing life-changing advocacy for children in our community through their Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) program. The program featured New York Times bestselling author Andrew Bridge, an advocate who has dedicated his life to fighting for vulnerable children. He discussed his latest book, “The Child Catcher: A Fight for Justice and Truth,” a grand prize winner of the 2024 Reader Views Literary Awards.

Among those in attendance were Jamie Gover, Regina Unegovsky, Amy Eybsen, Sarah Flocken, Michelle Cathcart, Alexa Zanolli, Kristi Pfister, Amy Serafin, Molly Weber, Nathan Simmons, Jamie Oberto, Abby Baltieria, Virginia Martinez, Erika Pfister, Mark Sottosanti, and Lauren Freund.
