ORGANIZATION: Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) of Orange County

CASA Logo

Los voluntarios de CASA hacen una diferencia que cambia la vida de los niños que han sufrido abuso o negligencia.

Quick Overview
Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) of Orange County provides a powerful voice and a meaningful connection for children who have experienced abuse, neglect, and abandonment. We recruit, train, and support community members who are sworn in by the court as advocates for youth in foster care. No prior experience is required as CASA will provide all the training and support you need.

Impact
Children in foster care who have a CASA volunteer are more likely to succeed in school and adjust to change. And they’re half as likely to re-enter the foster care system. Como voluntario de CASA, usted puede ayudar a un niño en cuidado de crianza temporal a encontrar un hogar para siempre.

Today, more than 200 vulnerable children in your community are on CASA’s wait list, referred by a Judge or Social Worker, and needing a mentor-advocate of their own.
