COURT APPOINTED SPECIAL ADVOCATES (CASA) OF MERCED COUNTY
Misión
Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) of Merced County advocate for the best interests of abused and neglected children within the court system. Based on the belief that every child is entitled to a safe and supportive home, CASA works through trained volunteers in collaboration with key agencies, legal counsel and community resources to serve as the child's advocate in the Merced County Juvenile Court System.
Acerca de
The CASA volunteer is a sworn officer of the court whose job is to provide the juvenile court judge with an independent assessment of the circumstances of the child. The CASA's report is drawn from their evaluation of interviews they conduct with key parties in the child's life. The CASA makes recommendations for the disposition of the case based on the child's total circumstances. In addition, the CASA attends all court hearings pertaining to the child. With the support of the program staff, they represent the interest of the child in the proceedings, which are normally scheduled every six to twelve months.
