Casework & Advocacy Working on every front to improve the lives of New York's foster children. Casework For more than 25 years, New York City family court judges have been assigning the most difficult cases to CASA. Our trained and supervised volunteers represent the child's best interests in court. CASA volunteers get to the bottom of the case. They research the case and interview the parties involved. They make sure that deadlines are met, that required services are provided and that safeguards are enforced. They provide the judges with the facts to make an informed decision about the child's future. We can resolve the tough cases, minimize the time spent in foster care and move children into permanent homes, either with their parents or in adoptive homes. Advocacy CASA's systemic advocacy acts as a watchdog to press social service providers, legal representatives and legislators to do everything within their means to move children swiftly out of the foster care system and into families.
