It is an honor to continue our legacy of showing up for children since 1992, standing along the most vulnerable youth in Santa Cruz County, together with the families, community partners, and CASA volunteers and supporters who make this work possible.
Our goal is to offer every eligible child in the Juvenile court system a caring Advocate within 30 days.

The CASA House
In 2008, an intrepid board and staff launched its $1.5M Capital “A Casa for CASA” Campaign to purchase a home to use not only as its office, but primarily a place that looked and felt like a home where Advocates could bring their children. In May 2009, the house was purchased and renovations began. In 2010 CASA moved into the house and it has become an extraordinary resource for our children, volunteers and staff.
The house is open to the children and Advocates daily from 12-5 or by appointment. Because of confidentiality issues, the house is closed to the public when children are present.
