 These Placer County volunteers are specifically trained to serve at-risk children and parents. CASA and Placer Mentor volunteers help foster youth, at-risk youth, and young adults build resiliency, self-confidence, and self-sufficiency. They help them attain academic achievement and avoid the juvenile justice system, teen pregnancy, and drug and alcohol use. The goal of Child Advocates of Placer County is to see our youth make better life choices, succeed in school, and become happy, stable, and contributing adults. They want parents to reunify with their children and rebuild their families.
