CASA of Middlesex County is seeking volunteers to advocate for children who have been abused or neglected. When a child is in foster care, having a court-appointed special advocate (CASA) means they are more likely to find a permanent home, spend less time in foster care, and perform better in school.

The next information session will be held from 10:30-11:30 a.m. on Oct. 26 at the South Brunswick Library, 110 Kingston Lane, Monmouth Junction section of South Brunswick.
