local CASA programs
Local CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocate) programs are initiatives that recruit and train volunteers to represent the best interests of children in the foster care system. These advocates work closely with the children, social workers, and the court to ensure that their voices are heard and their needs are met. CASA volunteers provide crucial support by gathering information about the child's situation and making recommendations to the court. The goal is to help children find safe, permanent homes and to promote their overall well-being during challenging circumstances in their lives.
