As a board member of Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) of Ventura County, you will do more than help children in foster care (though you’ll do that, too). You will find reward in serving as a volunteer to help the most vulnerable children in our community.
This is a “working” board, meaning our members provide strategic and financial direction to the organization’s leadership team, and they actively participate in fundraising and networking activities. On average, board members commit four hours a month to this volunteer role.
BOARD APPLICATIONS NOW BEING ACCEPTED

A CASA volunteer is a trained community member who becomes a sworn officer of the court by the Juvenile Court Judges to represent the best interests of a court-dependent child. CASAs ensure children involved with dependency or delinquency courts have a voice in their proceedings.
