Become a Volunteer
One caring advocate can be the difference between a child merely surviving the foster care system and truly thriving beyond it.
As a CASA volunteer, you can make a diference in your community by giving a child hope for a brighter childhood and future.
CASA volunteers are everyday heroes from all walks of life who speak up for the best interests of children in foster care. With a CASA volunteer, a foster child is twice as likely to find a safe, permanent home. CASA volunteers provide an invaluable service by advocating for children who have come into care due to abuse or neglect. They serve as the eyes and ears of the court, advocating for the child’s best interest and helping to ensure that the child’s needs are not overlooked.
