In the amount of time it takes you to...
Work out at your health club,
Dine at your favorite restaurant,
or Wash your car…
YOU CAN CHANGE THE LIFE OF AN ABUSED CHILD!

A CHILD IS WAITING FOR YOU
Today, more than 120 children are waiting for volunteer mentor-advocates of their own.  A judge has referred them to CASA for advocacy, but there simply aren't enough trained volunteers to go around. We need your help to make a difference...one child at a time.

Every day, abused and neglected children in Orange County are taken from their homes and placed into foster care because their parents cannot - or will not - take proper or safe care of them.  CASA volunteers are needed to help make sure that the educational, emotional, medical and practical needs of these children are identified and met.

WHAT IT TAKES
CASA volunteers are ordinary people...men and women, students and executives, retirees and busy professionals…who give of their time and hearts to make an extraordinary difference for some of Orange County's most vulnerable children.

As a volunteer, you will form a unique one-on-one relationship with your assigned child and will become the best equipped person in your child’s life to know what he or she truly needs.

CASA will provide all of the training you need to be a powerful voice for a child's best interest. We just ask that each volunteer commits to spending time with his or her assigned child at least twice a month – visiting at the child’s placement, going to a park or sometimes attending special activities and events together. You will also periodically attend court hearings (typically twice annually) and additional time may be required for advocating for the best interests of your child.
