CASA of NH
CASA stands for Court Appointed Special Advocate.  Our volunteers work with children who are involved in the child protective services system through no fault of their own.  Our advocates get to know these children and speak on their behalf in court, so that the judge can make decisions that serve the best interests of the children.  A typical case will last anywhere from 2 – 3 years, and we look for volunteers that can see those cases through to the end. 
 
CASA work is unique, and we recognize that it’s not for everyone.  You’re working within the judicial system, which can feel intimidating at times, and the cases can have an emotional impact as well.  But our volunteers tell us time and time again, that the work they do as a CASA Guardian Ad Litem, is among the most significant in their lives.  It’s challenging work, but if you have an interest in law or in social work, it might be the right fit for you.
