Court Appointed Special Advocates for Children (CASA)

119 W. Frederick St
540-448-1528

CASA for Children has recently expanded their services to Harrisonburg/Rockingham!  We currently have an office at the Fairfield Center, 165 S. Main St, Ste A. 


CASA, which stands for Court-Appointed Special Advocates, is a non-profit organization of volunteers who are voices for abused and neglected children. The courts appoint CASA volunteers to gather information to help judges decide what is best for each child. 


Our volunteers come from all walks of life, and most are employed full-time. Volunteers must be 21 or older, undergo a background check and take part in a personal interview. Volunteer advocates are patient, open-minded people who have good communication skills, a history of following through on commitments and a willingness to accept guidance. Above all, they care about children.
