Review for CASA of Sonoma County (Court Appointed Special Advocates of Sonoma County), Kenwood, CA, USA
Being a CASA means developing a close relationship with a child or youth in foster care. Often you are the only person whose ONLY agenda is to help this person thrive. You spend time, you listen, you provide thoughtful feedback, you help to link your child with important community resources. Sometimes you just take a walk or have a cup of tea. These are children and youth who really need an advocate. It’s not an easy job.
And you are responsible for reporting to the judge every six months on progress, issues, needs. (And the judge does really read your report.) If you’re looking for a very meaningful volunteer experience, check out CASA.
