The Fountain Hill Center- CASA of Oceana Program
About Us
The Fountain Hill Center provides mental health and wellness services to individuals and families in Oceana County. Fountain Hill is also the non-profit umbrella for Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) for children of Oceana. CASA volunteers are assigned by the judge to represent the best interest of children in abuse and neglect court proceedings. CASA volunteers participate in 30 hours of pre-service training prior to being assigned a case.
The CASA volunteer visits with the child regularly, researches the background of the child, prepares written reports for the Court and attends hearings until the case is permanently resolved. CASA volunteers are a constant for children in a time of chaos. A child may have multiple social workers, foster care placements, therapists, and teachers throughout the life of the case but only one CASA volunteer.
