12p Sarah Winograd - Together With Families
Guest
Sarah moved to Belarus at 11 years-old with her family where service to community was the norm. After moving to New York as an adult, she began working with youth experiencing homelessness, families experiencing poverty, and youth in residential treatment. In November 2018, Sarah began volunteering as a Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA). She left her CASA role after noticing families being separated due to poverty-related factors. Wanting to support these families with basic needs that can keep families united, Sarah formed the Together for Families program with Advocates for Children in November 2021. As Program Manager for Together for Families, she has supported hundreds of families in Bartow and Cobb Counties in Georgia by working with community partners to meet their immediate basic needs.
