Every child deserves a safe, loving home and the promise of a bright future, especially those navigating the complexities of foster care. Court Appointed Special Advocates for Children (CASA) is seeking compassionate individuals to step up and make a lasting difference in the lives of these vulnerable children.

As a CASA volunteer, you will advocate for the best interests of children in the foster care system, ensuring that their voices are heard and their needs are prioritized in court. Volunteers play a crucial role in the lives of these children, offering support and guidance as they navigate the challenges of their situations. This spring and fall, CASA will host training opportunities for prospective volunteers. Participants will engage in court observation, receive comprehensive training, and have access to flexible monthly volunteer opportunities that allow them to make a direct impact in a child’s life. “Every child deserves to be heard and understood,” said Renita McClain, CASA’s volunteer coordinator. “By becoming a CASA volunteer, you can help bring out the best in a child experiencing foster care, providing them with the support they need to thrive.”

If you’re interested in making a difference and advocating for children in foster care, CASA invites you to join their team. For more information about volunteer training, please email renitalmcasa@gmail.com or call (901) 496-6164. You can also fill out the volunteer interest form at gacasa.org/grow. Join the CASA movement and help transform the lives of children in your community.

Together, we can ensure that every child has the opportunity for a safe and nurturing environment.
