CASA of Northeast Louisiana will hold a training session for new child advocate volunteers at 6 p.m. Tuesday, June 24.

The class will be held at The Center for Children and Families, 622 Riverside Drive, Monroe.

CASA volunteers become the "eyes and ears" of the court and help children who have been placed into foster care after suffering abuse or neglect.

"We are always in need of caring, dedicated people to get involved in the lives of these hurting children," said Greg Guthrie, director of CASA of Northeast Louisiana. "We have children who need the help of a CASA volunteer right now, but unfortunately, there aren't enough trained CASA volunteer workers to meet the demand. We need our community to realize that we have to care for our children, and find them all safe, permanent homes."

To learn more or to volunteer, call Anna Thomas at 398-0945.
