Columbia Gorge CASA
Hood River, Sherman County, The Dalles
Columbia Gorge CASA recruits, trains and supervises community volunteers to advocate for local kids in foster care. CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates) are appointed by judges to be their eyes and ears and ensure that the child’s needs are being met while in foster care. Volunteers spend on average 10-15 hours per month and are asked to make a commitment through their first case. CASA volunteer training are offered 3 times per year (fall/winter/spring). CASA training consists of 6 weeks of combined in-person and on-line learning using a dynamic interactive curriculum that includes guest speakers. A pre-training interview, application and background check are required prior to the start of training.
