Affiliate Programs Across Georgia
These programs recruit, screen, train, and supervise CASA volunteers — specially-trained adults appointed by the court to improve a child’s experience in foster care. CASA volunteers provide compassionate, individualized attention to help each child find a safe, permanent home when reunification isn’t likely.
We’re working to give every child who experiences foster care in Georgia a CASA volunteer.
You can help us reach our goal!
“To give a child a CASA volunteer is to give them a voice. To give them a voice is to give them hope, and to give them hope is to give them the world.”

Our friends at Multi-Agency Alliance for Children, Inc (MAAC) recently introduced their furry new team members from their remote offices. We wanted to play too! Meet the Georgia CASA remote team members! Some are more willing to play along than others. Who's next? #nonprofitpetcoworkers
Did you know…In light of the need for physical distancing, CASA volunteers remain committed to staying socially connected and accessible to children, caregivers, parents, case managers, and the courts via technology. CASA volunteers are visiting virtually with children using text, phone, and video conferencing. In addition, CASA staff and volunteers are involved in planning and support calls with case managers and caregivers. When there are in-person court hearings, CASA volunteers and others are participating via video conference, and are active in virtual proceedings. If you are a parent, caregiver, relative, or service provider of a child in foster care and need support, please reach out to your CASA volunteer or program.
