Become a CASA

Information Meeting

All across Santa Cruz County, there are children and youth who need your help.

Attending an info session can be the first step. Our hour-long, no commitment information sessions are your chance to learn more and find out if this is the right volunteer opportunity for you.

**Information meetings, pre-training interviews, and Advocate trainings are being done hybrid, some online and some in-person**
