CASA is not your typical volunteer role. That’s okay. We're not looking for typical volunteers.

Become a Volunteer Advocate for a Child

A volunteer advocate is a court-appointed, trained and committed adult who ensures that each child’s individual needs remain a priority in an overburdened child welfare system.

Meet our “Not-So-Typical” Volunteers

“Honestly, I think being able to watch the kids enjoy themselves on visits, they’ve made a connection with me and it's nice that for a short time, they don’t have to worry. On my first case, I advocated for a sibling group, and seeing them relax and enjoy 'being kids' is so important. To be able to be a constant presence in these kids' lives makes it all so worth it. A few hours a month of your time can totally change a child’s life.” Meet Volunteer Advocate David Sosa!

Amplify Advocacy: 30 Children in 30 Days

On top of the anxiety and loss that many of us are experiencing in the wake of the storm and COVID-19, the children we serve have also experienced life-altering trauma. You can give them CASA volunteers who will ensure their best interests remain a priority in this chaotic time. Our goal is to raise $60,000 between now and the end of Amplify Austin, March 5 at 6 PM, to provide 30 children with dedicated CASA volunteers to advocate on their behalf this year.
