CASA's Back to School Drive

Help children get prepared for their first day of school with CASA of Essex County's Back to School drive. CASA needs volunteers to do important work for children who are on there way to finding a safe and welcoming home. Some of the backpacks and supplies that will be sorted during this opportunity were donated by Jersey Cares volunteers and partners. Help us further the impact of the donation by volunteering with this amazing organization.

CASA of Essex County promotes the welfare of children who have been removed from their homes due to abuse, neglect, or abandonment by providing a safety net of support, advocacy, and mentorship. CASA, also, trains and supervises volunteers to speak up for the best interests of these children in court, to ensure that each child has the opportunity to thrive by receiving needed services and assistance while helping to move the child toward a safe and permanent home as quickly as possible..
