08/07 Against All Odds

Quote From: phonsavanh1

I  have a friend who was recently in a custody battle in which a CASA volunteer was involved.  As my friend had nothing to hide and was willing  to have the CASA volunteer in her home, she had no complaints about the experience.  I am a little confused though, because on the show it was mentioned that CASA only receives money through donations.  My friend, however, was required to pay a $100 fee to the CASA volunteer.  The man involved in the custody battle was also required to pay $100 to the volunteer.  This was not a "donation" from either party, as the CASA volunteers participation and payment was ordered by the court.
I am a CASA . We do not get paid for any of our work and I would report the volunteer to a supervicer or to the judge ASAP if I know of that. Please do so
