Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) is looking for you!

Or someone you know to, “Stand up for children, so they’ll stand a chance.”

What: Orientation for those interested in becoming CASA Volunteers

When: Friday, August 21 10 a.m.

Where: College Community Services, Building at 113 East F Street, Tehachapi, CA

Plan to attend this one hour meeting to learn how you can make a difference in the life of a child in foster care. CASA volunteers make an 18 month commitment and donate an average of 10-15 hours per month in their role as an advocate. All volunteers must be screened and accepted to a 33 hour training program. If unable to attend, there will be an opportunity for an orientation via web. Call Karina Capellino at 631-2272 to RSVP and receive an application. Visit our website at http://www.kerncasa.org for more information.

There is a great need for advocates in the Eastern Kern area.

CASA of Kern County – a non-profit organization that trains community volunteers to speak for the best interests of abused and neglected children in court – is a member of the National Court Appointed Special Advocate Association.
