About Volunteering with Central GA CASA

Children who are removed from their homes and placed in foster care are suddenly thrust into an unfamiliar world of caseworkers, attorneys, courtrooms, and judges. In the midst of this upheaval, they need someone who will stand beside them and advocate for their best interests.

Central Georgia CASA volunteers bring a clear voice and a sense of urgency to each child’s needs by:

  • Gathering information about the child’s circumstances

  • Attending court hearings

  • Making informed recommendations to the judge about services and next steps

CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocate) volunteers are trained, compassionate adults who fight for a child’s right to be safe, treated with dignity, and given the chance to grow within a stable, loving family.

The wellbeing of children is truly at stake. Every child who cannot live safely at home deserves a CASA volunteer to help guide their safe journey out of foster care, and to strengthen the path forward for future generations.
