Brightside Child & Family Advocacy, a leading nonprofit organization dedicated to safeguarding the well-being of vulnerable children, provides services to prevent child abuse and neglect by strengthening and supporting healthy family relationships. We are urgently seeking compassionate individuals to step forward and become Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) for children in need.

CASA advocates offer unwavering support to children who have experienced abuse, neglect, or other traumatic events, helping them navigate complex legal and child welfare systems. By volunteering as a CASA advocate, you can make a lifelong impact on a child's life, providing them with hope, encouragement, and a positive role model. CASA volunteers empower children by amplifying their voices, advocating for their needs, and protecting their rights.

We welcome individuals from diverse backgrounds and walks of life to consider becoming CASA advocates. No prior experience in child advocacy is necessary. Individuals with a deep concern for the welfare of children and a genuine desire to make a positive impact in their lives. Those who can commit to spending an average of 10-15 hours per month on their CASA duties, ensuring consistent support for the children they serve.

In this crucial time, we call upon community members to stand together and become CASA advocates for children in need. Your dedication can make an immeasurable difference in their lives. 

Our next CASA Volunteer Training Session will begin on July 11, 2024. Those interested in becoming CASA volunteers may attend our virtual Informational Session on July 1st at 12:00 PM. To learn more about the role and access the application form, please visit our website at brightsideadvocacy.org/volunteer or call 912-447-8908.
