Advocating for low-income children in custody cases so they have a chance for a safe, secure home life. Family Law CASA advocates for children in some of the toughest custody cases in King County. Addressing a frightening gap in services, CASA provides a court appointed special advocate in high risk cases that involve allegations of physical & sexual abuse, domestic violence, neglect, drug & alcohol abuse, criminal activity, health, education, &/or untreated mental illness. The children typically have no other supportive service to monitor for their safety and they are not the subject of an active dependency action and therefore they do not have a social worker assigned for their benefit, or any legal representation. A CASA advocate gathers information, reports and makes recommendations to the court for a safe plan and family services.
