Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) volunteers are patient, open-minded people from all walks of life who have good communication skills, a history of following through on commitments, and a willingness to accept guidance. Above all, CASA volunteers care about children and their futures!
What Does a CASA Volunteer Do?
CASA volunteers help change a child’s story that has experienced abuse and/or neglect who are under court protection.
Volunteers:
-
Spend regular, quality time getting to know their assigned child.
-
Are supported and supervised by CASA team members and work alongside everyone involved in the case.
-
Write monthly objective court reports on the child's safety and well-being to help the judge make important decisions on the child's future.
-
Acts as a consistent adult for a child while under court protection throughout all the child’s transitions.
-
Volunteers spend on average 4-6 hours a month on their case.
“I became a CASA volunteer thinking I would change the life of a child or two, and I know that I have. What I never expected was how much they would change mine.”
