Thank you so much for your interest in becoming a CASA/GAL volunteer. Nearly half of all foster youth in the U.S. are in the states of California, New York, Texas, and Florida — but foster youth need advocacy across the country.

The National CASA/GAL Association for Children, together with state and local member programs, supports and promotes court-appointed volunteer advocacy so every child who has experienced abuse or neglect can be safe, have a permanent home, and the opportunity to thrive.
