The Mayfly Project is a national non-profit organization that is active in over 30 states and has served approximately 1,000 kids in foster care.
The Mayfly Project is a 501(c)(3) organization that uses fly fishing as a catalyst to mentor children in foster care. Our mission is to support children in foster care through fly fishing and introduce them to their local water ecosystems, hoping that connecting them to a rewarding hobby will allow foster children to have fun, feel supported, and develop a meaningful connection with the outdoors.
Looking for children to participate this summer. Registration is now open. The first outing is on June 8.

The Communities Aligned in Prevention Efforts (C.A.P.E.) program is based out of the Bannock Youth Foundation in Pocatello. The C.A.P.E. program provides education on issues like ACE's, brain architecture, adversity and trauma, healthy outcomes from positive experiences, and more to anyone who is interested. The courses are designed to meet the needs of the individuals/organization that is interested. Some courses can be designed to offer CEU's for certain professionals.
The C.A.P.E. program works throughout Eastern Idaho to promote the Hope Conquers ACE's curriculum, designed by the Idaho Children's Trust fund. Being a part of the statewide network means that we can help anyone get connected to training opportunities. The C.A.P.E. program also oversees Child Abuse Prevention Month events in Region 6 of Idaho for the month of April as well as many other community events.

A CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocate) is a specially trained volunteer from the community who is appointed by the Court to represent the best interests of the child in court. The CASA helps insure that the child's right to a safe, permanent home is acted upon in a sensitive and expedient manner and that progress is being made to achieve permanency for the child. The CASA acts as the "eyes and the ears of the Court.” Appointed by the judge, the CASA does his/her own independent investigation of the facts of the case and reports the facts, along with his/her recommendations, to the Court. The CASA stands as the representative for the child during all Court proceedings. After the disposition of the case, the CASA monitors the case as long as the child is under the jurisdiction of the Court, always making sure that the child's needs are being met in a reasonable and timely fashion.
