The National CASA Association is a United States non-profit organization that supports court-appointed special advocates (CASA) and Guardian ad Litem (GAL) programs for children who have experienced abuse or neglect. It coordinates a national network of about 890 state organizations and local programs operating in 48 states and the District of Columbia. The association leads the growth and development of this network, with programs that recruit, train, and support volunteers who advocate in court for the best interests of children and youth in the child welfare system or foster care. CASA and GAL volunteers are appointed by judges to advocate for the welfare of the children, working with legal and child welfare professionals, educators, and service providers to ensure judges have the information needed to make informed decisions. The organization is headquartered in Seattle, Washington, at 100 West Harrison Street North Tower Suite 140, and maintains a website at nationalcasagal.org.
