CASA VolunteersAppointed by family court judges, CASA volunteers typically handle one case at a time until the child is placed in a safe, permanent home. Volunteers start by getting to know everyone in that child's life: parents and relatives, foster parents, teachers, medical professionals, attorneys, social workers and others. They use the information they gather to inform judges and others of what the child needs and what will be the best permanent home for them. You do not have to be a lawyer or social worker to be a volunteer. We welcome people from all walks of life. We are simply looking for people who care about children and have common sense. As a volunteer, you will be thoroughly trained and well supported by professional staff to help you through each case. |

| About us | CASA understands the vital need for the child to have a voice in the courtroom—and that each child is an individual with unique needs. The organization recruits, trains and provides on-going support and supervision to community volunteers who serve as courtroom advocates for abused and neglected children in the Kenton, Campbell & Pendleton County Family Court system. CASA volunteers get cases moving through the child welfare system and advocate strongly to help ensure each child is in a secure, safe home. |
