Welcome to Children's Voice: CASA, Inc.

Empowering Voices, Changing Futures

Children’s Voice: CASA, Inc. is a dedicated 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization in Douglas County, Georgia, with a mission to recruit, train, and support community volunteer advocates who stand up for the best interests of children experiencing foster care due to abuse or neglect. Empowered by the courts, our Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) volunteers are the critical advocates children need in courtrooms and communities, ensuring their rights and needs are met while they are in foster care.

CASA volunteer advocates remain committed to each child until they find a loving, permanent home. For many, their CASA volunteer advocate is one of the primary, stable, caring adults in their lives during uncertainty.

We’re here to raise awareness, inspire action, and create lasting, positive change for the children we serve. With your support, we can transform the lives of these children and give them the hope and future they deserve.

Please explore our website to learn more about how you can get involved, whether through donations, volunteering, advocacy, or simply spreading the word. Together, we can advocate and elevate the voices of children who need us most.

Thank you for visiting. We look forward to connecting with you and making a lasting difference—one child, and family at a time.

Top 10 Reasons to Become a Tutor

Education is the key to success. You’ve probably heard a statement like this time and time again throughout your life. Focus on your education and lead a more successful life later on. However, school and systemic learning doesn’t always come easily to everyone.

One such way you can lead a more altruistic life is within the education system, by giving your time and resources to become a tutor. Tutors help students young and old to better their education, improve their skills and gain more success in a field of their choice. Why should you consider becoming a tutor? Today, we give the top 10 reasons.

1. Boost a student’s confidence.
Tutoring is a great way to help boost a student’s confidence. Whether that student is beginning elementary school or is an adult learner, there’s nothing more satisfying than watching the look of understanding pass across their face in a ginormous smile.

2. Improve your own confidence.
Not only can tutoring help a student’s confidence, but it can help yours, too. First-time tutoring can be pretty nerve-wracking, so when you do see a student fully grasp a concept, self-confidence in your own skills improves as well.

3. Expand your knowledge.
We can’t all be experts on everything. When a student has a problem or question you don’t fully know the answer to, it gives you an opportunity to expand your own knowledge in various areas.

4. Gain experience teaching.
If you’re interested in teaching or working in a classroom, then tutoring is the perfect chance to gain more experience and see if it would be the right path for you. Plus, if you’re already on the path to become a teacher, then tutoring gives you that extra edge of experience for the future.

5. Add to your resume.
Whether you choose to volunteer as a tutor or work for money, tutoring still adds valuable content to your resume, making you more marketable for potential careers later on.

6. Enjoy flexible hours.
The best thing about tutoring is that it’s often one-on-one, which makes scheduling a breeze. If you’re looking for a job that can fit into your busy scheduling, tutoring provides flexible hours.

7. Earn extra income.
While some tutoring is volunteer-based, others can also provide extra income. If you’re looking for a job to give a little more wiggle room in the monthly budget, tutoring is a great option.

8. Build valuable relationships.
Of course, tutoring also gives you the opportunity to build valuable relationships with your students. Make new friends, become a mentor figure and create a lasting impression in someone’s life through a tutoring relationship.

9. Give back to the community.
If you want to help your community, then tutoring is an awesome way to do so. Support those around you by giving back through your time and resources.

10. Have fun!
Finally, tutoring is just plain fun. While school can be difficult, finding new and engaging ways to teach the material creates an enjoyable and personal environment for you and your students.

If you want to lead a more altruistic life, consider tutoring in your community. Not only are there great potential benefits for you, but you can feel confident in helping others around you, as well.

Together, we are

strong.
