Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASAs) work with children who have been abused and neglected in Boulder County. As a myriad of professionals come in and out of these families' lives, the CASA is often the one consistent figure who can offer comfort to a child. Because CASAs develop close relationships with the children they work with, their role includes reporting to the court with their recommendations for what is in the best interest of the child. Voices For Children believes that every child deserves a safe and permanent home, and CASA volunteers ensure that that happens. If you are looking to make a life long impact in a child's life, join us for our monthly CASA 101 information session to learn more about how you can support Voices For Children. The sessions will be held the first Thursday of every month from 5:30p-6:30p at our new address in Gunbarrel: 6672 Gunpark Dr., Suite 100!
