Child Advocates is looking for volunteers to serve as Educational Advocates for students who have been abused or neglected. Volunteers should have interest and experience working in education. Volunteers will work in tandem with Child Advocates staff to provide individualized assistance and inter-system coordination to students and families in order to develop positive communication and improved educational opportunities/outcomes for students in the Marion County Child Welfare System.

Each educational volunteer must complete our CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocate) training with additional training around special education. Volunteer Educational Advocates must have daytime availability in order to attend meetings conducted during school hours.
