About Be the Difference. Be a CASA.

Becoming a CASA can be a fulfilling experience. A CASA is a court appointed special advocate.
CASA volunteers are appointed by judges to advocate for the best interests of abused and neglected children in court and other settings. The CASA stays on the case until completion, therefore the time commitment can vary. To find out more contact us today at https://www.bitterrootcasa.org and CHAT for Inquiry or fill out the application on-line.

Application Process

BCASA will email an application to interested individuals. You can request an application on our web site, or call our office 961-4535. Once the completed application is returned, an interview will be scheduled.
