The National Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) Association fulfills society’s most fundamental obligation by making sure a qualified compassionate adult will fight for and protect an abused or neglected child’s best interests. The mission of National CASA, together with its state and local members, is to support and promote court-appointed volunteer advocacy so that every abused or neglected child can be safe, establish permanence, and have the opportunity to thrive. But today, only 35% of the children in the system have access to a CASA volunteer. The National CASA Association is committed to ensuring that 100% of the children in the system have access to a CASA volunteer.
