Why become a C.A.S.A. volunteer advocate?

C.A.S.A. (Court Appointed Special Advocates) volunteer advocates are trained community members who are appointed by a judge to represent the best interests of abused or neglected children in the foster care system.

They work closely with the child, gathering information from the child's family, caregivers, teachers, and other professionals involved in the child's life.

The volunteer then provides the court with a detailed report and recommendations, advocating for the child's needs and ensuring that they receive the necessary services and a safe, permanent home.
