Core offering

CASA of Ocean County recruits, screens, trains, and supervises community volunteers who are appointed by the New Jersey family court to serve as Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASAs) for foster children in the child welfare system. Volunteers complete approximately 30 hours of pre-service training, then are matched with one to two cases at a time, providing judges with informed recommendations and ensuring each child's best interests are represented throughout court proceedings.
