- CASA of Jackson County, Inc (541-734-2272 ~ Pre-K-High School)
CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates) of Jackson County is a non-profit 501(c)(3) volunteer organization that recruits, trains and supports volunteers, every day citizens, as appointed members of the court. The social welfare system is overburdened, which can result in abused and neglected children slipping through the cracks. CASA volunteers can help change that. As stated in Oregon State Statute 419B.170, a CASA volunteer shall be appointed by a juvenile court judge to each dependent ward of the court. CASA volunteers provide the one constant in a child's life that is needed to help them thrive.
