Passes and Ideas For You and Your CASA Child

We have passes and discount coupons for the California Palace of the Legion of Honor, the Morrison Planetarium, the Academy of Science, Waterworld, the Exploratorium, Six Flags Marine World, and Zeum, as well as San Francisco Zoo Community Membership cards. Please call your case supervisor if you are interested in taking advantage of any of these.

Send us your ideas on activities to do with your CASA child, and we'll include them in the next newsletter and put them on the SFCASA website. Let us know what your CASA child did and did not like. Your experiences will greatly help other CASA volunteers.

Community Access Ticket Service-CATS

Opportunities are available for current volunteers to take their CASA youth to CATS events. CATS provides hundreds of opportunities each year for clients served by SFCASA and other Bay Area organizations to attend Art and Science Museums, Theatre, Music, Dance and Sports events throughout the bay area. Current volunteers receive email announcements from Corrine. If you would like to receive these announcements please contact Corrine@sfcasa.org 415.399.6120

Independent Living Skills Program

CASA volunteers assigned to 14-21 year old youth should consider encouraging their youth to attend, and maybe even attend with them, some of the classes and events sponsored by the Independent Living Skills Program.
