Please meet our talented and hard working CASA interns!
My name is Ellie Riddell! I am a third-year student at the University of Georgia majoring in Marketing with a certificate in Consumer Economics. In my free time, I like to read, spend time with family and friends, and go on walks. I am so excited to be working with CASA as a social media intern and can not wait to make a difference in our community!.

My name is Holly Lydiatt and I am a senior at the University of Georgia! I am double majoring in International Affairs and Political Science with a minor in Criminal Justice and Sociology. My dream is to become a civil rights attorney that can defend a large variety of people. I have chosen this route because I believe that it is unconstitutional for an individual to be frowned upon because of their race, religion, ethnicity, and/or gender. I believe that by participating in this internship I will gain helpful experience for my career in law. I cannot wait to learn more about child welfare, the juvenile court, and the inner workings of a non-governmental organization!

My name is Jessica Jewell and I am a fourth year student at the University of Georgia. In spring of 2023, I will graduate with a Bachelor of Social Work degree and a certificate in Nonprofit Management and Leadership. After undergrad, I plan to enter the MSW/JD program at UGA with the ultimate goal of reforming our system and policies to aid victims/survivors of childhood sexual abuse. I am very excited to intern with the CASA program over this next year and I hope to learn more about the child welfare system in Georgia.
