Über uns
Our Vision: One day every child in foster care in California will have access to the transformative service and support of a CASA volunteer. Our Mission: California Court Appointed Special Advocate Association ensures that children and youth in the foster care system have both a voice and the services they need for a stable future. The California CASA Way: We connect all of California’s 44 local CASA programs through statewide meetings, training sessions, and online communication networks. We raise awareness of the need for Court Appointed Special Advocates across our state and provide support, advice, resources, and oversight to maintain high-quality programs that serve children’s best interests. We advocate for legislation that benefits children in foster care and the CASA volunteers who work on their behalf. California CASA Association is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization (IRS Tax I.D. #68-0163010) and all donations are tax deductible to the extent allowed by law.

The single most common factor for children who develop resilience is having at least one stable and committed relationship with a parent, caregiver, or other adult. A CASA volunteer can play that important role for a child in foster care. #CaliforniaCASA
