Be a change-maker! When you volunteer with CLC, you can help make a difference in the lives of children and youth in the foster care system. Volunteers play a vital role in furthering the mission of CLC to provide high-quality legal representation and advocacy to children and families throughout our community.
Volunteer Programs

When a foster youthโs parents are unable or unwilling to participate in the youthโs education, the court has to appoint a responsible adult to stand in the parentsโ place. For foster youth who donโt have any family or friends who can fill that role, CLC recruits and trains volunteer education rights holders.
