The need is real and urgent.
Sadly, the number of Arizona children in need greatly exceeds our number of CASA volunteers. This number fluctuates constantly depending on calls coming into the DCS Hotline as well as cases that are closed.

Make a forever difference.
Multiple studies have shown that children who have experienced abuse or neglect fare better with a CASA volunteer by their side. Not just now, but forever. Having a caring, consistent adult to listen and put a child’s best interest before all others’ can make all the difference.
Wherever you live, there’s a life you can change.
CASA volunteers are needed across Arizona. Select the county where you live to learn more.

The making of a hero.
Becoming a hero to a child desperately in need of love, support and protection is easier than you may think.
Here’s all we ask:
- Be at least 21 years old and a US Citizen or legal resident
- Allow a thorough background check, provide references and participate in an interview
- Complete a minimum of 30 hours of pre-service training
- Be available for court appearances (advance notice will be given)
- Commitment to remain a CASA volunteer until your child’s case is closed
