Mission: The mission of court appointed special advocates of missoula (casa of missoula) is to provide independent, trained advocates for the best interests of children within the judicial system who are at substantial risk or have experienced abuse or neglect. We provide consistent, long-term advocacy until every child resides in a safe, permanent home.
Programs: Court appointed special advocates of missoula (casa) is a nonprofit organization incorporated in the state of montana in 1994. The organization recruits, trains, and supervises community volunteers to provide a voice for children in the 4th judicial district who have experienced abuse and neglect, and are in the child welfare system. Casa volunteers also assist in ensuring that the health, education, and permanency needs of these children are met. Casa is supported primarily through public and private grants and donor contributions.
