FOR LOCAL PROGRAM STAFF ONLY. Some local program staff wear one hat while others wear many. Join us for a two hour workshop to better understand how each role can help support National CASA’s Core Model and new standards. This training is recommended for new staff, staff who would like a refresher and for local programs when a new ED comes on board. However, all staff are welcomed! Participants are asked to have their cameras on and ready to participate and engage with presenters and fellow participants. Limited to 20 participants. Topics covered:

-Elements of volunteer screening and the importance of it

-The role and responsibilities of an Advocate Supervisor

-The importance of volunteer retention and how to engage volunteers

-Key elements of case management

-How to evaluate elements of a quality report

Facilitated by Karen Lehmkuhl, Director of Training
