Training event brings together volunteers and area judges

August 26, 2018

Recently, Northeastern Indiana Casa staff and volunteers gathered for a specialized training at the Kendallville Library. Topics covered during the day centered around what to do and what not to do as a CASA. The day featured a panel discussion which included area judges and a discussion on working a case study. 

The event was facilitated by Jackie Boyle who volunteers as a CASA, serving for more than a year in Noble County. (Read more about Jackie's volunteer story here)

Training is an important part of preparing a volunteer to be better equipped for their role. Community members who are interested in getting involved with Northeastern Indiana CASA should not feel as if previous experience is needed. Fall Training is happening soon and those who want to join as a volunteer should complete an application soon! 

Northeastern Indiana Casa Executive Director Kristi Bachman speaks to the group of volunteers gathered for a recent training.

Training events breed conversation, support and continual learning for our volunteers

Volunteers came together for a recent training program to help learn more about the role they hold within the nonprofit organization.
