In 1997, Georgia Corbett asked herself “What’s next?” and we’re glad her answer was to become a Yolo County CASA volunteer.
Corbett first arrived in Davis to attend college, and except for the year she went away to receive her master’s degree in education of exceptional children, she has remained in Davis ever since.

When she had children of her own, she took a break from education to spend more time with her children and help her husband with his business. As her children were nearing high school graduation, she started thinking about the magical question above, and largely because of her background in education, looked for child-oriented causes.
