About this event

  • 1 hour

Please join Lauren Brueckner and LaTysse Mack to learn how to become a Court Appointed Special Advocate, known as a CASA Volunteer.


  • CASA Volunteers advocate for children experiencing foster care due to abuse and neglect. They work to establish strong, stable connections with their assigned youth.
  • CASAs advocate to ensure the child receives needed essential services and attend meetings and gather information from parties involved in the child's life.
  • They also work with the Child Attorney and CASA Coordinator to make recommendations in court for what's best for the child.
  • The CASA volunteer remains involved in the case until the child is reunified with their family or when that is not possible, works to find a safe and permanent home.
  • CASAs meet with the child face-to-face at least once a month and attend all court hearings to testify to their findings and recommendations as the child’s advocate.

We need YOU now more than ever to advocate for Delaware's abused and neglected children.
