CASA, A Voice for Children Charity Profile

CASA, A Voice for Children recruits, screens, trains and supervises volunteers to advocate for children who have been victims of abuse, neglect, or abandonment and are dependents of the Napa Juvenile Court. CASA volunteers are sworn officers of the court, appointed by a judge to be an independent advocate and report on the best interests of children.

The Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) program is dedicated to providing abused, neglected and abandoned children a voice in Court throughout their process in the Juvenile Court system. Trained community volunteers work with children and their families, one child at a time, to develop an independent assessment and recommendation of that which is in the best interest of the child.
