Help Change a Child's Story with CASA

Blue Ridge CASA for Children Seeks Volunteers to Advocate for Vulnerable Children

Blue Ridge CASA for Children is calling on compassionate individuals in Shenandoah and Page Counties to step up and make a life-changing difference for children in need. As we begin 2025, we encourage you to “Resolve to Make an Impact” by becoming a Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA).

CASA volunteers serve as powerful voices for the most vulnerable members of our community—children who have been victims of abuse and neglect. This unique opportunity allows volunteers to support these children by advocating for their best interests in court and helping them navigate their journey toward safe, permanent homes.

“Our CASA volunteers are the heart of our mission. They ensure that every child’s voice is heard and that their needs are prioritized,” said Angela Crawford, CEO of Blue Ridge CASA for Children. “By joining us, you can play a critical role in changing the trajectory of a child’s life.”

The need for volunteers in Shenandoah and Page Counties is especially urgent as Blue Ridge CASA just expanded into these areas last year. No prior experience is required but applicants must be 21 years of age with a valid driver’s license and be able to pass a background check. Blue Ridge CASA provides comprehensive training and ongoing support.
