Become an
Advocate for
Abused and
Neglected Children
Friends of Court Appointed
Special Advocates Hawaii
is seeking volunteers to be
trained as advocates for abused
and neglected children in the
Hawaii Family Court system. A
training program is scheduled
to start in June on the Big
Island.
Court Appointed Special
Advocates receive training
and then are appointed by
the state judiciary to speak
up for a child’s safety and
well-being. Advocates will
become a powerful voice in a
child’s life as they represent
and advocate for the child’s
best interests by submitting
written recommendations
and
at tending
cour t
hearings.
Court Appointed Special
Advocates volunteers come
from all walks of life. Over half
of our volunteers work full
time.
Upon successful completion
of the training, volunteers will
be certified by the Hawaii State
Judiciary to serve as Court
Appointed Special Advocates
for abused and neglected
children. In an overburdened
social welfare system, these
children often slip through
the cracks among hundreds
of current cases. Volunteers
change that. They typically
handle one case at a time and
commit to staying on that
case until the child is placed
in a safe, permanent home.
While others may come and
go, volunteers provide the one
constant that a child needs in
order to thrive.
Those interested in taking
the training in June should call
961-7677, or visit CASAHawaii.
org for details about the
program.
