CASA Volunteers work both in and out of the courtroom. They build relationships with the children, family members, and foster caregivers. They work in concert with the judges, lawyers, social workers, service providers, parents, and teachers. 

CASA volunteers come from all walks of life, with a variety of educational and ethnic backgrounds. There are more than 62,000 CASA volunteers nationally and more than 60 are active annually in the First Judicial District (Santa Fe, Los Alamos and Rio Arriba counties). Aside from their CASA volunteer responsibility, many are employed in regular full-time jobs.
