We are need of people with big hearts for kids, especially kids in foster care!
When kids, through no fault of their own, get placed into the juvenile dependency system, the world can become a scary and lonely place. Children in the juvenile dependency system often get moved from home to home, for the child that means; new rules to follow, new school, new teachers, new friends… As CASA volunteer you may very likely be the only ‘constant’ in a foster youth’s life, it’s a big commitment, but impact you will have on a child’s life will be worth it all. I promise.<!--?xml:namespace prefix = "o" ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /-->
Volunteers who wish to join this program will need to go through 30 hours of trainning over a 5 week period. The trainning is free and the times of the trainning do vary. Once a volunteer has gone through the tranning they will be asked to commit 3-5 hours a week to the program. This commitment a week can be done on various days and at various times of day. The overall commitment of a volunteer who has gone through the trainning is a 18 month commitment to the program.
I can’t wait to meet you. I hope you decide to join us.
