Get more information on becoming a CASA Volunteer |
What exactly does a CASA volunteer do? CASA volunteers are assigned to an abuse or neglect case by a judge. They conduct thorough research on the background of the case, reviewing documents, interviewing everyone involved, including the child. They make reports to the court, recommending what they believe is best for the child, providing the judge with information that will help her make an informed decision. CASA volunteers are instrumental in assuring that a child or family receives services which the court has ordered - things like substance abuse counseling or special education testing. During the life of a case, a CASA volunteer monitors the child's situation to make sure he remains safe. CASA volunteers may be the only constant the child knows as she moves through the labyrinth of the child welfare system. For more information on how you can volunteer in your community please provide the following information. An information packet including an application will be sent to you within 10 working days. Thank you for your interest! To receive more information on becoming a CASA volunteer in your area, please provide the following information:
