What is CASA? (Court Appointed
Special Advocate) Child abuse
and neglect happens everyday in our community. Sumner County CASA is a non-profit, volunteer agency that provides YOU
the unique opportunity to make a difference in these abused and neglected children's life. That's right, YOU
can make a difference!!!
CASA trains everyday citizens from all walks of life to become
these abused and neglected children's voice in the courtroom. No experience required! The volunteer is able
to provide the Judge with first hand knowledge of the circumstances surrounding the child. Volunteers visit with parents,
foster parents, teachers, social workers, therapist, anyone with knowledge regarding the child's situation, including
the child. The information found through out the volunteer's investigation is then reported back to the judge in
written form. This report also includes the CASA volunteer's concerns regarding the child. Sign up today for volunteer training! Please visit the volunteer page
for more information and to download a volunteer application.
