Each CASA program is mandated by the California Rule of Court 5.655, to insure our volunteers complete 12 hours of continuing education each year. In addition to in person training opportunities, we offer independent study to meet this requirement. To receive one hour of continuing education credit, please email a paragraph or two about the topic you chose, what you learned, and felt was the most noteworthy, etc. Email Sheryn at shildebrand@mendocinocasa.org
