So You Are Interested. How Do You Become Involved?
With nearly 950 CASA and GAL offices across the country, there is a
good chance that one is near you. For more information, click in the
Act Locally box at the top of this page and put in your zip code to
find a local program. Also, you can call our toll-free hotline at
(888) 805-8457 to have information mailed to you.
Other Ways to Help
We understand that not everyone can take on an active caseload with
a CASA program. However, there are other important ways you can help and make
a difference:
Become a donor
Offer pro-bono services or resources
Volunteer for local CASA events
Invite a CASA representative to speak to your church, fraternity,
sorority or civic/social organization to encourage others to become
involved
Encourage your elected officials to enforce laws that protect
children
Tell a friend and help spread the word
“It's about
helping a child replace a life of hurt with one of hope.”
