renew hope for a child

Become a CASA

CASAs (Court Appointed Special Advocates) are volunteers and ordinary citizens doing extraordinary work.
When a child has an advocate, he/she is more likely to get needed services — and a permanent, stable home. Are you eager to make a difference in a child’s life? Become a volunteer.

Tracy’s Story
“I gave him his backpack and new clothing for school. He did not say much and just went to his room. A few minutes later he walked out with his new jeans and t shirt on. He said, ‘I am going to wear these everyday;’ we laughed and later he said, ‘I have never had new clothing.” — Tracy (A CASA volunteer)
