The Need
for Volunteers
Our local CASA program offers a volunteer opportunity like
no other. As appointed representatives of the court, CASA
volunteers
are empowered to make a lifelong difference in the lives of
abused and neglected children.
Local CASA volunteers advocate
for close to 800 children per year but approximately 700
are still waiting for advocacy.
Our volunteers are an amazing force for good, but we need
more of
them. Our vision is that every child who needs a volunteer
will have one. With your help, we can reach that goal.

one child's life was changed forever by a CASA volunteer.

cultures, ethnic, and educational backgrounds. We have a
particular need for men, minorities,
