The CASA of Harrison & Tuscarawas Counties Program swore in a new group of Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) volunteers during a special ceremony on October 24, 2025, at the Tuscarawas County Juvenile Court. Tuscarawas County Juvenile and Probate Court Judge Adam Wilgus presided over the ceremonial oath, swearing in the second group of volunteers for 2025.
The newly sworn-in CASA volunteers are community members from all walks of life who completed comprehensive training. They will soon advocate for children in Harrison and Tuscarawas Counties experiencing abuse and neglect, many of whom are in the foster care system.
After undergoing a background check and comprehensive training, CASA volunteers are appointed by a judge or magistrate to advocate for children in abuse or neglect cases.
We welcome to our outstanding team, Julie Pizon and Hilde Weber as they join a network of amazing advocates for the children in our communities.
