Become an Advocate for an Abused Child in Foster Care

CASA of Los Angeles is currently recruiting Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) volunteers to investigate the circumstances of children, who have been removed from their homes due to abuse or neglect, and placed in protective custody.

CASA volunteers advocate for foster children both in court and in the community. Volunteers must be at least 21 years of age, be able to make a two-year commitment to the program, undergo a thorough background check, and successfully complete a 36-hour CASA training. Approximately 5-6 hours per week are required. Bilingual (Spanish/English) and African American advocates are especially needed. 

For more information and to RSVP to our next orientation, please call  (323) 526-6666 or visit www.casala.org
