What is required to be a CASA volunteer?
CASA volunteers come from all walks of life, with a variety of professional, educational and ethnic backgrounds. Nationally there are over 47,000 volunteers. No special or legal background is required. However, volunteers are screened closely for objectivity, competence, commitment and background check. Locally, 50% of our active CASA volunteers also work in part or full-time employment; approximately 90% are women and 10% are men.
