Court Appointed Special Advocates

Court Appointed Special Advocates

Advocates spend time one-on-one with a child in foster care, serving as an extra set of eyes and ears for the judge on a child's case. Their voice is trusted and valued in the courtroom, where life-altering decisions are made about where the child will live. Because advocates have a personal relationship with the child, they can express what would be in the child's best interests, helping guide the child into a safe, permanent home.
