CASA Of Arizona Looking For Volunteers In Various Arizona Counties For Children And Youth In Need

The Court Appointed Special Advocates of Arizona, or CASA, is asking Arizona residents to volunteer, to help significantly impact the life of a child in need. CASA volunteers are appointed by judges throughout the state to help advocate and give a voice for a child in court and other settings. On an average day, there are over 13-thousand youth in Arizona that are living in foster care, with relatives, shelters, or other centers. Currently, there are over 12-thousand children in need of a CASA volunteer. To volunteer for CASA, you must be over the age of 21 and pass a thorough background check. No previous experience is needed and 30 hours of free training will be provided. To learn more or to become a volunteer, go to AZCASAVolunteer.org, or call (928) 226-5420 in Flagstaff.
