CASA Seeks Child Advocates

The Alaska Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) Program is recruiting volunteers to speak up for abused, neglected or abandoned children. A CASA's responsibilities include gathering information about the case, representing the child's best interest in the courtroom, meeting with the child regularly, acting as a "watch dog" for the child during the life of the case and ensuring that it is brought to a swift and appropriate conclusion. Today there are more than 900 CASA programs throughout the country. Some 52,000 CASA volunteers work with children who have been abused, neglected or abandoned.

No special legal background is required. Interested volunteers should be objective and committed. Informational meetings, attending one of which is required to volunteer, will be held at noon on Thursday, July 18, at the Office of Public Advocacy located at 900 West 5th Ave., Suite 525. Training dates are scheduled for 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on Thursday, July 25; Friday, July 26; Monday, July 29; Tuesday, July 30; and Wednesday, July 31 at the Snowden Court Administration Building located at 820 West 4th Avenue.
