Court Appointed Special Advocates® (CASA) are community volunteers, just like you, who stand up and speak out to help abused and neglected children.

 

Our CASA program belongs to a network of over 950 community-based programs that recruit, train and support citizen-volunteers to advocate for the best interests of abused and neglected children in courtrooms and communities.

"As the Judge, I particularly value CASA's advocacy role for the best interests of the children. Reports from CASA provide important information to the Court about the current situation and needs of the children. CASA's efforts frequently result in  Court-ordered services that are vital to the well being of the children"

- Retired Family Court Judge John J, Rivoli
