Grand Prairie CASA

CASA recruits and trains people from within the community to advocate on behalf of children in the courtroom, classroom, and the community. CASAs act as fact finders for juvenile judges by providing them with information gathered from individuals involved in the child’s life, legal documents, social worker’s files, educational, medical, and therapy records. CASAs work directly with the children, family members, school officials, attorney’s, health care providers, and others involved in their lives, then share this information along with their recommendations to the court, so that well-informed decisions can be made regarding the child’s future.
