CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocate) volunteers are appointed by judges to advocate for abused and neglected children. Volunteers stay with each case until it is closed and the child is placed in a safe, permanent home. For many abused children, their CASA volunteer will be the one constant adult presence in their lives. Independent research has demonstrated that children with a CASA volunteer are less likely to spend time in long-term foster care and less likely to reenter care. Becoming a CASA volunteer is an investment of time, energy and heart.
