What We Do
CASA is a home for climbers. It’s a place where you can learn new skills and have fun being a steward of the areas we use. Our work is the foundation for our advocacy for climbers, and it empowers us to address access issues when they arise.

Structure
CASA is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt nonprofit organization modeled after the Access Fund.  Members support our projects and events through participation and financial contributions.  Our tax EIN is 47-2934022.

Projects
Our goal is to provide you with resources, opportunities, and education so you can work on what’s important to you. We’re currently planning:​
  • Adopt a Crag events
  • Regular Mt. Lemmon highway cleanup
  • Graffiti abatement/removal for Windy Point
  • Fixed hardware replacement team
  • Education opportunities for climbers at all stages
  • Partnerships with local land managers, user groups, and other organizations through collaborative relationships
