Our Mission

Voices for Children, a nonprofit organization, endeavors to ensure that abused, neglected and abandoned children who have become dependents of the San Diego County Court will have a safe and permanent home. Through our network of trained and educated volunteer Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASAs), Voices for Children works with key agencies, legal counsel and community resources to identify and protect the best interests of each child inside and outside of court.

Our Vision

It is the ultimate goal of Voices for Children, San Diego's only CASA program, to:

• Provide a CASA to every child in San Diego County who needs one
• Shorten the time children spend in the system and prevent their return
• Review all cases that enter the Juvenile Dependency Court system and intervene earlier
• Expand our capacity as a "watchdog" agency for children
• Maintain adequate resources to serve the children of San Diego County
• Compile detailed information about the health and well-being of foster children
