About Columbia Gorge CASA...

Circuit Court Judge Karen Ostrye by clicking here

Columbia Gorge CASA recruits, trains, and supports community volunteers - just like you - to advocate for these children and ensure that they do not languish in the well meaning, but over burdened child welfare system.
The trained volunteer, called a "CASA” (
Court
Appointed
Special Advocate)
monitors the child's needs and follows up to ensure services are provided.
CASA volunteers are
a lifeline for children during this traumatic time in their lives - a bearer of hope.
We need for more CASA volunteers so that we can serve all children in foster care here in the Gorge. Lift up a child's voice, a child's life. Become a CASA!
