Our Volunteers Say...

 Being a CASA is meaningful and rewarding because...

"I find being a CASA rewarding in a different way than you expect. There may not be that instant pat-on-the-back, but deep down you know the well-being of the child is being focused on, and that is never in vain."

"It is important to me that each child has a voice. It is important to me that children have an advocate who speaks on their behalf to express their best interests. The fact that CASAs are unpaid volunteers speaks loudly that they truly love children and want to make a difference, one child at a time."

"As I explain to friends what my role as a CASA is, once I explain it is my duty to look out for the best interest of neglected and abused children, they usually respond with, 'Oh, I could never do that!' My answer is, “If I don’t, who will?"

"I find volunteering as a CASA rewarding because I can see real progress being made in a child’s life through the efforts of CASA and Children Services to do what is best for the child."
