| Ways to help | CASA VolunteerCASA Volunteers come from many different places and all walks of life. Whether you are a captain of industry or a quietly concerned community member, whatever your schooling or your own life experiences, you can be a successful volunteer. All you need is to share the passion and commitment to advocate for children. CASA Volunteer roles and responsibilities include the following topics: child protection; case building, including interviewing and investigation techniques; report writing; and understanding the children we serve. Each CASA volunteer must complete a comprehensive training program. We offer several training sessions throughout the year to accommodate our volunteers. |

| About us | The CASA Project, a member of the National CASA Association, recruits, screens, and trains community volunteers to become Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA), also known as Guardians ad Litem (GAL). Appointed by judges to help on the most heart-breaking cases in the foster care system, CASAs help abused and neglected children navigate the Worcester County Juvenile Courts, one child or sibling group at a time. On an average day in Worcester County, MA, 1,700 abused, neglected or exploited children live in foster care because they cannot live safely at home. All of the children are victims, and need a voice to ensure they grow up in a safe and permanent home. Nearly 800 arrive for help into our juvenile court system each year. |
