CASA Expands Reach to Juvenile Justice

Starting January 2021, our Court Appointed Special Advocates program is expanding services to reach youth in the Juvenile Justice system. To be an advocate for this youth community there will be an additional module of online training through CASA University as well as an additional in person (or on Zoom) class with our CASA Advocacy Supervisor.

Advocates for youth in the Juvenile Justice system may have a shorter length of commitment than an advocate for a child experiencing foster care.

Youth receiving services from the Juvenile Justice Department are in need of someone to look out for their best interests just like youth experiencing the foster care system.
