Dear Editor,
A CASA worker is a court appointed advocate. The question is then asked wheat one has to do to become a CASA worker. The answer to this is easy. First, you to to go to the CASA offce in Sapulpa. It is located on Main Street, so it is easy to find. You will be asked to fill out a form. This is just your biographical information. After a short time, the administrator will conduct an interview. The you will begin classes. Presently the classes are on Zoom. Then you will be asked to write a court report. Don't panic, it is easy.
Then you will be sorn in by the judge and you become offcially a CASA worker. The central offce will give you a case. You can't have a case where you know the parents, etc. Don't worry, you will find one. The major rule is tha you will have to keep everything the you find a secret. Throughout the case, you will need to visit with the natural parents, foster parents, children, etc. At times, you will observe family visits. There will be times that you will have to write up a court report. Don't panic, the central offe will help you.
We have many children in this country that need help. You, as a CASA worker, looks out for the child only.
A child is crying that he needs someone. Will you be that someone?
