Court-Appointed Special Advocate (CASA)
CASA advocacy is a fulfilling and enriching experience. By volunteering with CASA of SoLA, you are able to dedicate your time to help better the lives of children who have experienced abuse or neglect. During your time with CASA, you will be appointed by a judge to advocate for the child's best interests in court. Your advocacy enables judges to make the most well-informed decision for each child and is a crucial role in every child having the most opportunities for a successful life.
Requirements:
1. 30 hours of pre-service training spread out over 5 weeks (15 in-person/15 virtual)
2. 8 - 10 hours of volunteer time per month
3. Complete a background check and fingerprinting
