LOCAL Closer Look: Voices for Children Riverside County (Riverside, CA)

Posted on Sunday, March 17, 2024 by Jeanice Lee

Jeanice Lee talks to President and CEO Jessica Muñoz of Voices for Children Riverside County. CASA is a Court Appointed Special Advocate who works closely with the court system to train community volunteers to advocate for children in foster care. CASAs report on the child’s progress and needs so judges and other professionals can make the best decision for the child’s future. Muñoz shares about the training and ongoing support they provide their CASAs. Volunteers are needed as there are hundreds of children waiting for a CASA. Get started by attending an information session. Connect at (SpeakUpNow.org) or call 951-472-9301.
