When parents or caretakers are unable to take on the responsibility of managing the educational rights of
a youth, those rights can be transferred to an Educational Representative.
The representative serves as
the point-person for all decisions around the youth's academic and developmental needs. An Educational
Representative could be a foster parent, relative, family friend, or in many cases, a CASA.
Who are the CASA volunteers in your community? Court Appointed Special Advocates are everyday people who dedicate about 10-12 volunteer hours a month to helping children in foster care.
