Description:
CASA volunteers provide judges statewide with carefully researched background information for eah assigned child to help the court make a sound decision about the child’s future. Each case is as unique as the child involved, and best interest recommendations are tailored for that child's needs. The CASA volunteer recommends if it is in the child’s best interest to remain in foster care, be returned to his or her parent/guardian, or be freed for adoption. The CASA volunteer stays with the case until it is permanently resolved, giving the child at least one stable adult presence throughout their time in foster care.
Mission Statement:
Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) volunteers, working as part of a network of local, statewide CASA programs, ensure that these children, who are victims of physical, sexual, and/or psychological abuse or outright abandonment, have a voice in court proceedings that determine their fates
