Children who have experienced abuse and neglect fare better with a CASA volunteer by their side. Studies show that they are:
Half as likely to re-enter the foster care system.
More likely to find a safe, permanent home.
More likely to succeed in school.
To our community:
As we continue to march into a brave, new future, we'd like to thank each of you for your support of our mission and the children we advocate for within Norfolk Juvenile and Domestic Relations Court. For nearly 39 years, Norfolk’s Court Appointed Special Advocates have been by the side of thousands of children, lending them their shoulders to lean on and their voice in the courtrooms.
Now, more than ever, we are committed to our CASA children’s best interest.
If you are interested in getting involved by volunteering as an advocate, fundraiser, board member, or committee member, we would love to hear from you.
It is Norfolk CASA's policy to recruit, train, and maintain volunteers and staff that advocate for children without prejudice in regard to race, color, religion, socioeconomic status, national origin, gender identity, gender expression, sexual orientation, age, or abilities.
All children and their families will be treated fairly and without prejudice to the aforementioned identities.
Non-Discrimination Policy
