Volunteer
Advocacy is Never Cancelled = We Need You!
Every year, the Courts in our area handle hundreds of child abuse and neglect cases.
Every one of them is much more than just a file…each is a child’s life.
The children assigned to our Program need someone to stand up for them.
Someone to stand up for their hopes, dreams, and futures.
Someone with a super-heroic heart and a commitment to something bigger than themselves.
Someone who is willing to try something unique and forever change a life.
Could that someone be YOU?
No prior experience necessary – we will train you in the ways of a CASA!
