Volunteer with CSD
C3 is proud to partner with the Centralia School District. Here are the current volunteer needs at some local CSD schools.
Volunteer with Lewis County Guardian ad Litem Program
Advocating for children in dependency cases is challenging and rewarding work, and it takes a special person to be a GAL.
Volunteers come from all walks of life and backgrounds, but each is carefully screened and selected. To become a volunteer you must be able to pass a background check with no criminal convictions in the past 10 years, no child abuse/neglect history with CPS, positive written recommendations from three persons who are not relatives, and successfully compete the interview. Once you are accepted into our program, we provide 30 hours of initial training, an experienced mentor to guide you through your first cases, and support from program staff.
Volunteers can expect to spend a minimum of 10 or more hours per month per case on GAL work. When a case is first starting, this time requirement may be more, and conversely, when a case is in progress or winding down, you may spend less time. We require you to compete at least one face-to-face visit with each child you are assigned to per month. We try very hard to match children and volunteers by geographic locations, so you don’t have to travel too far. Our program also offers mileage reimbursement for home visits, meetings, and court appearances. You will also be required to make at least monthly contact with your assigned supervisor.
If you would like to be considered for the next training session, please complete the application and return to our office. We would be happy to answer any questions or provide additional information. Please visit our website at www.lewiscountygal.org for even more information.

CSD Prayer Requests
Thank you for your continued support of our students and our district. The work, resources, and prayers you provide have a significant impact upon the learning and success of our students. We are appreciative of your partnership.
We are preparing for a successful start to a new school year on Tuesday, September 1, 2026, and we are in need of your prayers.
Will you please pray for our students and staff as we open the school year. Please pray we will be God’s light for our students and help them grow academically and also draw to God’s love spiritually.
We would appreciate prayer for the student, Ronnie, that lost his leg in a car accident in Chehalis a few weeks ago. I am certain prayer will make a difference for Ronnie and his family.
Thankfully,
Lisa Grant, Ed.D.
Superintendent
Centralia School District
