SUMMARY:View from the Bench: Active vs. Reasonable Efforts
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, October 31st\, 12-1 pm MDT \nZOOM \nCourts are required by federal law to make “reasonable efforts” findings in child welfare cases unless the case involves the Indian Child Welfare Act (ICWA).

What role\, if any\, should the CASA/GAL program have in identifying those resources? \nRegister: https://nationalcasagal.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_pqIB1xQNT1Or0X_4TmY2-A#/registration \nProgram ID #: 10073 \nOrganization: CASA PPR \nJob Title: Advocate \nPlease note: If you are unable to attend the live presentation of the training\, we encourage you to register\, as you will receive a post-training email from the National CASA/GAL Association with information on how to access the recorded session\, along with any related collateral materials.

SUMMARY:DHS Safety and Risk Assessment
DESCRIPTION:DHS Safety and Risk Assessment \nRSVP to brennad@casappr.org \nEver wondered what goes into deciding if children should be removed or stay in the home after a call to the hotline is made? Join us for an in-service (in the CASA training room) to learn exactly what questions and conversations must be had to determine when DHS removes children. Our guest presenter\, Dan Mills\, who has worked at DHS for 30+ years\, will go through the safety and risk assessment that the county uses and answer any questions we may have. Then\, converse with your fellow advocates about our own socioeconomic bias and recognize when our recommendations and opinions qualify as safety issues versus preferences.
