Volunteer Spotlight
Joyce Flynn-Monaco, CASA volunteer |
"I am very proud to be a CASA volunteer because you really are making an impact in the lives of children. You are sometimes the voice for a child that no one is listening to."
Volunteer - Philadelphia | More about Volunteering
There are over 6,000 foster children in Philadelphia. CASA volunteers visit children regularly, contact caseworkers, interview parents, doctors, teachers and therapists. They review records, report to the court and testify - all to ensure necessary safety, care and most importantly permanence for the children.
