Speak up for a child.

Children who have been abused or neglected need more than the child welfare, court systems and education systems can provide.

Join us in championing their best interests.

How to become a Court Appointed Special Advocate

The first step to becoming a CASA volunteer is to attend a Volunteer Information Session. During the Information Session, participants will learn about the CASA Volunteer Program, the foster care system, CASA training, and how CASA volunteers make a difference. This is a required first step.

All Information Sessions are in-person and take place at one of four locations:

  • Wayne office, 415 Hamburg Turnpike, Wayne, NJ 07470,

  • Elizabeth office, 1143 E Jersey Street, Elizabeth, NJ 07201,

  • Clark Public Library, 303 Westfield Ave, Clark, NJ 07066,

  • Westfield Public Library, 2nd Floor, 550 East Broad Street, Westfield, NJ 07090.

Join us at our Open House in April!
