Volunteer: CASA VolunteersLife has shut down in many ways during the COVID-19 pandemic, but CASA of Lexington is gearing up for a possible spike in reported cases of child abuse and neglect after restrictions are lifted. We need more CASA volunteers willing to speak for the best interests of abused and neglected children in central Kentucky. We have been offering completely virtual trainings during the pandemic, enabling many to become CASA volunteers while remaining healthy at home. Children who already lived in homes where they were at risk of abuse or neglect are now spending all their time in those homes. In other homes, job losses, tight living spaces and the stress of living through a pandemic increases the risk for abusive or neglectful behavior by caretakers. People in the homes where abused or neglected children live often are not the ones to report neglect or abuse; it’s often not until more eyes are on a child at school that suspected abuse or neglect can be identified. CASA is working to be prepared for the coming spike in cases when more eyes are on our children again and it will be more important than ever that we have CASA volunteers ready to step into those cases. CASA of Lexington has launched a COVID-19 response page on its website at casaoflexington.org/covid19, which helps anyone find a way they can help. New CASA volunteers can now sign up to take their initial 30-hour training online, and an application to begin the process is available on the website at casaoflexington.org/advocates. Once trained and assigned to a case, a CASA volunteer is expected to spend 5-10 hours a month working on their case by meeting with their child and others involved in the child's life, and attending court. We ask our volunteers to commit to at least two years of service, in order to ensure consistency for the children we serve. During the pandemic, many of our volunteers are staying safe while advocating for children by using video services such as Zoom, or by speaking with children from a driveway while the children are on the porch, for example.
