Job Title: CASA Intern: Court Appointed Special Advocates for Children

Company: CASA for Children (Court Appointed Special Advocates)

Job Type: Internship, Part Time

Degrees Wanted: None Required

Majors Wanted: Any Major

Job Target: Any Job Target

Location: Santa Rosa, CA 95409

Salary: Volunteer Intern

Job Description: The Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) program is seeking volunteer interns. CASA is a private non-profit program that exists to ensure that no child is ever lost in the foster care system. For their protection, these children have been removed from their homes and are usually living in foster or group homes. Our goal is to advocate on behalf of the needs of the children who have fallen victims to child abuse. The CASA program receives referrals directly from the Juvenile Court Judge. CASA recruits volunteers to become youth advocates to these children to support their progress while in foster care. CASA typically serves 200 children annually via 150 volunteer child advocates. We invite you to join our dedicated and professional staff in changing the lives of children by volunteering your time and talents to assist in the office. Internship hours/days of work will be negotiated to meet the needs of the intern and/or what specific requirements need to be defined for college credits. CASA Executive Director will work with you to gain practical understanding of the inner workings of a not-for-profit organization. You will gain insight and understanding of the Juvenile Court, Child Welfare, and the Probation System. You will be asked to work in the front office, and as you become familiar with the organization, you will become a relied upon member of the staff. We will begin to develop more personalized duties that will be customized to your strengths as well as duties that might challenge and encourage your growth. Internship / Volunteer Positions: 1) Become a Child Advocate As a Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA), you would establish and maintain contact with a child, interview his or her parents, social workers, teachers, and others, and submit a written recommendation to the court--outlining what is best for the child. You would become the "eyes and ears" for the judge and help ensure that "your" child does not become lost in the court system. If you care and have about 10 hours a month to spend, being a CASA can be very gratifying work. 2) Become a Volunteer There are numerous ways to help CASA. We have a continual need for office help, people who can volunteer a half day each week on a regular basis. In addition, we need people to help coordinate fundraising and other activities. Interns are integrated into the agency as meaningful parts of our work and will be given duties that they can handle. We also ask interns to be honest and frank about what they feel they can and cannot do. We respect that you are a student and have many responsibilities. Contracts with your professors, teachers, and internship supervisors will be developed to include orientation, training, screening, sight visits, other agency observations, your hours and supervision requirements. CASA asks you to take your internship with us seriously. Interns are respected and seen as very important parts of the CASA program. We will ask for reliability and respectful honest, open communication. To receive further information concerning this internship opportunity, please contact the Director, Millie Gilson or email: info at sonomacasa.org
