Training: This specialized program is designed to help with one of the toughest, yet most rewarding volunteer positions: becoming a CASA Volunteer for children ages 14 to 18. Launch focuses specifically on the needs of older youth in the foster care system and trains CASA volunteers to work effectively with this age group. Throughout the year, additional trainings will be offered in order to learn more about working with youth ages 14 to 18. Some of the topics covered are education, delinquency and job readiness.
