National CASA continues to highlight studies that evaluate the impact of CASA volunteers on youth. CASA volunteers, themselves, can articulate what they witness every day. They see the change in children that have experienced trauma. They know the difference they are making through engagement with the child’s case team and information they present in judicial court reports.
A Fairmont State University study, in collaboration with the West Virginia CASA Association, reveals that CASA volunteers significantly improve outcomes for dependent children.
