What types of cases are CASAs assigned to?

0

Because L.M. CASA Program is new, the number of CASA Volunteers available is limited. There simply are not enough CASAs to appoint to every child in the state’s custody. In Walker and Dade County, the first graduating CASAs were immediately assigned to the cases in which the children needed a CASA the most. Among those were children removed from home and placed in a non-relative foster home. Such cases involved sexual, physical, and emotional abuse. Other factors involved domestic violence, drug abuse, neglect, unsanitary living conditions and cruel punishments. As a CASA Volunteer, you will be exposed to a way of life you may not have imagined. It may not always be pleasant, but you will have the chance to make a significant difference in a child’s life.
