Mission
The Mission of Atlanta Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) is:To educate the community and to recruit, train and supervise court appointed volunteers to advocate for the best interest, safety and permanent placement of abused and neglected children in foster care within Fulton County, Georgia.
What We Do
Every year in Fulton County, there are more than 1000 children in foster care. These child victims of abuse and neglect by family members enter an overburdened child-welfare system andlegal system beyond their ability to understand or negotiate. The Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) is authorized by the court to be the eyes and ears of the judge and the voice of the child, ensuring that the child has what is needed to thrive until a place of safety and permanency is established. A CASA strives to Change A Child's Story!
