# What They Say

#### About VASIA of Johnson and Shelby Counties

  
**Voices of VASIA: Betty Kinney**

“Anyone that has empathy, and anyone that has a caring heart. It may be something you don’t think about right now in your life, but as you get older, you come across and think of the people that don’t have anybody in their corner.”

 

**Voices of VASIA: Julie Dwire**

“I think a lot of people think you have to have a certain skillset to be a volunteer with VASIA, but the truth is if you are a kind and compassionate person who just likes to make the world a better place… You’re perfectly qualified.”

**Voices of VASIA: Joe Erickson**

“It’s so much fun for one thing, another thing is it’s so fulfilling because you get to help other people do things that they’re unable to do and no one else to help them do it… In this day and age people need help. These people are definitely those that need somebody to be for them and speak out and advocate for them. This is what I would want for myself.”

**Voices of VASIA: Mary Beth**

“Since I’ve gotten into the program and realized what opportunities there are, there are so many little things that people can volunteer their time to help do and not be overwhelmed with the responsibility of being a guardian… There are so many little things that someone can do to help.”

Each protected person comes with their own set of circumstances, but the common thread is that they need someone to care about them and their needs, and I feel blessed to be part of an organization that provides assistance when they need it the most.

**Linda Krueger** VASIA Guardian Volunteer

Through the years I have sometimes been presented with critical and emergent circumstances that I felt powerless to address. VASIA has become my go-to for needs that fall outside of our scope of delivery and for those where time is especially critical.

**Cathy Bailey** Franklin Active Adult Center

VASIA volunteers have a unique opportunity to provide crucial personal advocacy for a segment of the population that is often unseen and thus overlooked.

**Diana Moorman**
