RICHMOND, Va. (AP) - An information session is being offered for Virginians who may be interested in volunteering to work in the court system on behalf of abused or neglected children.
Henrico County Court Appointed Special Advocates is seeking volunteers to serve as child advocates. The information session is scheduled for Aug. 27.
The nonprofit organization has worked closely with the Juvenile and Domestic Relations Court for more than 22 years. Volunteers typically work 10 to 15 hours per month gathering information on a child’s circumstances to supplement information provided to the court.
Henrico CASA will offer a 14-session training program for new volunteers beginning Sept. 22.
