ABOUT CASA of San Luis Obispo County
CASA of San Luis Obispo County (SLO CASA) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to transforming the lives of abused and neglected children. For nearly 30 years, we have recruited, trained, and supported volunteers, known as Court Appointed Special Advocates, who assist children assigned to our organization by the courts. CASA volunteers work throughout the county, with foster children between the ages of newborn and 21. They provide advocacy in the courts and bring stability to their assigned children, helping to ensure that the needs of each child are met.
SLO CASA carries out its work with an annual budget of $1.3 million. It is led by a 13-member Board of Directors and has a dedicated staff of 14. SLO CASA’s more than 200 volunteers form the backbone of the organization, through their tireless direct work with children in the foster care system. SLO CASA is part of a statewide and national network of similar organizations. You can learn more about us at https://slocasa.org/
