What do I have to pay for while working on a CASA case?

Answer

Volunteers are responsible for paying for their travel to visit children placed within 180 miles of the Capitol. We ask that CASA volunteers not spend more than $25 per visit on a child. This money usually goes towards meals and outings during the visit
