We will have an interactive and meaningful training on ways to create safe spaces and brave spaces, six steps to cultural growth, getting rid of the “elephant in the room”, diversity beyond race, providing a sense of belonging and inclusion, and how CASA can reimagine and dream big for cultural intentionality.
Bring your questions, notebooks, and favorite stuffed animal to this session, that will be led by CASA EID consultant Dr. MelindaJoy Mingo.

We’ll look at research findings from studies of three million kids, draw from writings of child/family psychology professionals, and share relevant life experiences. We’ll also look at Matthew Kelly’s writings on “becoming the best version of yourself” and Zimmy Zimberg’s “All Kids Need – A to Z.”
This class will provide insights and resources for anyone wanting to help children thrive, whether they are struggling or doing okay. Findings are presented with handouts that can be readily shared with foster children’s birth parents or relatives, foster parents, and/or case professionals.

"Dudes and Brews" Volunteer Info Session
2021-10-06 18:00 - 19:30 | The Garden, 401 South Nevada Ave., Colorado Springs, CO, 80903, United States
CASA is seeking more male volunteers to advocate for the most vulnerable boys in the Pikes Peak Region. As a CASA volunteer, you can show these boys the kind of safe, respectful, and responsible men they can become when they grow up. We’re looking for a few good men! Hundreds of children in the Pikes Peak Region enter foster care each year because of abuse or neglect.

Half of those children are boys.
These boys need strong role models to confide in and to speak up for them. When a boy feels accepted and has a good example for what kind of man he can become, the cycle of fear and violence can be broken.
YOU can be part of this important change in a boy’s life.
YOU can be a CASA volunteer.
Join us for “Dudes and Brews” to learn how you can advocate for a boy in the Pikes Peak Region. RSVP required.
