The CASA volunteer application process includes an application, background check, and interview. During this process, applicants can indicate whether they are interested in becoming a CASA advocate, a youth mentor, or learning about both opportunities. While CASA advocates work within the court system, mentors provide social and emotional support to youth, helping them develop life skills and independence.
Youth Mentors (Fostering Futures Forward Program): Serve as positive role models for youth, providing life skills training, career guidance, and emotional support to help them transition to independent adulthood.
