BECOME AN ADVOCATE FOR AN ABUSED CHILD IN FOSTER CARE
CASA of Los Angeles is currently recruiting Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) volunteers. Trained volunteers investigate the circumstances of children who have been removed from their homes due to abuse or neglect and placed in protective custody. CASAs advocate for the best interest of foster children both in court and in the community.
Volunteers must be minimum 21 years old, be able to make at least a 2 year commitment to the program, undergo a background check, and successfully complete a 36-hour CASA training. An average of 5 hours per week is spent on case activities. African American and bilingual (Spanish/English) volunteers are especially needed. The application process for the CASA Volunteer Training is underway. Ensure your spot! Volunteers must attend an Orientation session before taking the training. CASA of Los Angeles has also a satellite office in Lancaster.
