In-office Library
National CASA requires our advocates to have at least 12 in-service training hours per year to continue their education about abused and neglected children. There are a number of ways one can receive in-service hours. Please contact the office if you have questions.
Below is a listing of the books we have available in our office for check out. All of these can be used for in-service hours.
