Colorado Nonprofit Association

Advocate Supervisor

About the Organization: Voices for Children, CASA of Boulder County (VFC) builds a healthier

community by delivering services, support, and advocacy to children who have experienced

trauma. More than 2,500 children experience abuse and neglect each year in Boulder County, and

more than 200 are removed from their homes and placed in foster care. These children are faced

with a difficult path complicated by the physical, psychological, and emotional trauma they have

experienced. Additionally, there exists a significant racial disproportionality in the child welfare

system. Despite Boulder County residents being 77% white, children of color make up 51% of the

children in the system who have experienced abuse and neglect. Voices for Children understands

its responsibility to support the children who face unequal treatment and help them navigate an

inequitable society.

Position Summary: Join a passionate, dedicated, and collaborative team of professionals who are

responsible for supervising CASA volunteers (Court Appointed Special Advocates) as they advocate

for the best interests of children in the Dependency and Neglect court system who have

experienced abuse and neglect. You will collaborate with the CASA team to monitor and maintain

data on assigned cases and volunteers, assist with general program management, attend court,

document court proceedings, and participate in multidisciplinary teams that include child welfare,

judicial, and educational professionals. We are an organization committed to team well-being,

offering professional development, flexibility, and holistic support to help you succeed in making a

difference in the lives of children who have experienced trauma. You will be a part of a close-knit

and supportive team that values honesty, integrity, respect, and accountability. This position is an

integral part of the decision-making team in the CASA program and contributes to the overall

mission and goals of Voices for Children, CASA of Boulder County.
