Mission Statement

CASA advocates for the best interests of abused, neglected, and vulnerable children, amplifies their voice in court, and supports them on their paths toward a permanent home.

Description

We are a nonprofit organization committed to advocating for the best interests of abused, neglected, and vulnerable children, amplifying their voices in the Worcester County Courts, and supporting them on their paths to permanent homes. CASA Project Worcester County, a member of the National CASA Association, recruits, screens, and trains community volunteers to become Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASAs). Appointed by judges to serve on the most heart-breaking cases in the foster care system, CASAs help vulnerable children navigate the Worcester County Juvenile Courts, one child or sibling group at a time. CASAs communicate the best interests of the children directly to the judges, who use the reports in their evaluations and decisions on each case.
