Advocating for the protection of Iowa's children and improvement of the child welfare system.
Iowa Child Advocacy Board
Volunteer
Thousands of Iowa children are under the juvenile court's jurisdiction due to abuse or neglect. The programs and activities of ICAB are dedicated to advocating for these children's best interests. You can help as a CASA or FCRB volunteer!
CASA
The Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) program is a unique volunteer opportunity that aligns concerned citizens with children in their community who have experienced abuse or neglect. CASAs help ensure that a child's voice is heard.
FCRB
The Foster Care Review Board (FCRB) provides independent third-party review of cases in Iowa’s foster care system, providing the Court and other officials advisory recommendations of what is in the best interests of children in foster care.
