Volunteer Training
SFCASA holds four training cycles each year. Training takes place in the evening; most sessions are from 6-9pm. Most classes are held at the SFCASA office. Volunteers also attend a Court Panel Presentation and Court Observation at the court house.
The cycle training cycle lasts six weeks and consists of a total 37 hours.
In order to become a CASA, volunteers must complete all 37 hours of training. Missed classes may be made up in the following training cycle.
The final class takes place at the court house, where volunteers are officially sworn in as CASAs!
