About Michigan CASA
Michigan CASA is the statewide association supporting a network of 30 local CASA programs across Michigan. Since 1984, we have trained and supported Court Appointed Special Advocate volunteers who speak up for the best interests of children in foster care. At the state level, we provide funding, training, and capacity building so that every local program can serve children effectively - and so that every child who needs a CASA, has one.
