What is a CASA Advocate?

A CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocate) Advocate is a trained volunteer who represents the best interests of children in the foster care system. They work to ensure that each child has a safe, stable, and permanent home by gathering information, advocating in court, and collaborating with professionals involved in the child's case. CASA Advocates build relationships with the children they serve and provide judges with critical insights to help make informed decisions. Their goal is to help children navigate the child welfare system and achieve the best possible outcome for their future.

What types of cases or situations does a CASA Advocate typically handle?

CASA Advocates typically serve children who are involved in the child welfare system due to abuse, neglect, or dependency and are appointed by courts to make independent recommendations about the child’s best interests. This often includes gathering information by meeting with children, caregivers, teachers, and social workers, attending court hearings, and preparing detailed reports for judges. Cases can range in complexity and may involve siblings, changes in placement, or educational and healthcare needs. Advocates work closely with other professionals but maintain an independent perspective focused solely on the child's wellbeing. It's a meaningful opportunity to be a consistent presence in a child's life during challenging times.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the CASA Advocate position, and why are they important?

To thrive as a CASA Advocate, you need a deep understanding of child welfare, court processes, and strong advocacy skills, often supported by volunteer training and background checks. Familiarity with case management software and basic reporting tools is beneficial, along with knowledge of relevant legal and social service systems. Compassion, cultural sensitivity, strong communication, and the ability to build trust with children and families are stand-out soft skills. These capabilities ensure effective representation of a child's best interests and meaningful impact within complex legal and social environments.

Job description

Exactly What Does a CASA Volunteer Do?

CASA volunteers are appointed by the Guardian ad Litem attorney to advocate for the best interests of abused and neglected children. The primary responsibilities of a CASA volunteer are to:

Gather Information : Review documents and records, interview the children, family members and professionals in their lives.

  • Document Findings: Provide written reports to the GAL attorney in preparation for all court proceedings.
  • Appear in/Attend Court: Advocate for the child's best interests and provide testimony when necessary.
  • Explain What is Going On: Help the child understand the court proceedings. Seek cooperative solutions among individuals and organizations involved in the children's lives. As one volunteer said: Be the glue that connects the pieces in a complicated child welfare system.
  • Recommend Services: Ensure that the children are receiving appropriate services by keeping the guardian informed of any needs currently not being addressed. Bring concerns about the child's health, education, mental health, etc. to the guardian's immediate attention.
  • Monitor Case Plans and Court Orders: Assist the Guardian by reporting any deviation from what the court has ordered for the life of the case.
  • Keep the Guardian Informed: Update the Guardian on developments with all participating agencies and family members.
  • Visit with the Child: maintain a consistent and regular visiting schedule with the child.

The CASA Program is not a mentoring program. CASA volunteers gather information for the Guardian they are working with. During the assignment process clear instruction is given by the Guardian to the CASA as to what information the Guardian is seeking. It then becomes the responsibility of the CASA to obtain the information and provide it to the Guardian.

Special Requirements:

  • Volunteers must be 21 years of age or older
  • Pass a BCI (background check) and Child Abuse Registry screening
  • Complete 30 hours of training
  • Make a one year minimum commitment. A CASA advocate visits with their assigned child twice a month with a total time investment of 5-10 hrs a month.

Please contact your local CASA Program Coordinator- Gabbi Pagan gabbip@utcourts.gov for training information.
