SUMMARY:Become a CASA in 2026
DESCRIPTION:Hosted by Placer Nature Center\n\nChild Advocates of Nevada County’s CASA Program is accepting applicants for the Spring 2026 CASA Training. Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASAs) are community volunteers who are screened and trained to work with children who have experienced abuse and/or neglect and who have open cases in Dependency Court. CASAs stand as a caring\, committed adult for a child whose family is in crisis. CASAs work collaboratively with the court\, Child Welfare Services\, teachers\, medical personnel\, and other service providers to ensure that the child’s needs are being identified and met and that the child is placed in a permanent and loving home as soon as possible. CASAs also have the option of working with a teen in the Juvenile Justice system or acting as a mentor through the One 2 One program for a youth not in the court system but who needs adult guidance and support. Successful applicants to the CASA Program undergo a thorough background check and 35 hours of initial training and are guided and supported by professional staff. For information about becoming a CASA and/or a One 2 One Mentor\, visit www.considercasa.com or email melinda@caofnc.org.
