Voices for Children-- CASA which has been serving local foster children for 15 years, trains and manages community volunteers who support and guide children in the foster care system. Formerly known as CASA of Monterey County, Voices for Children’s mission is to train and support community volunteers who advocate for abused or neglected children placed in foster care, upholding the children's rights while pursuing a safe and permanent home. CASAs (Court Appointed Special Advocates) speak up for the children’s best interests and build relationships that help restore a child’s trust. CASAs also mentor youth over age 18 as they transition out of foster care into independent living.
