Introducing CASCWA
CASCWA is the only state organization that focus on the needs of the Supervisors of Child Welfare and Attendance personnel.
CASCWA offers the opportunity for like-minded professionals to develop a personal support network.
CASCWA offers the opportunity for professional growth.
CASCWA offers representation on the state scene.
How do the above issues play themselves out in practice?
The issues faced by Supervisors of Child Welfare and Attendance personnel are represented by a legislative liaison at ACSA meetings, as well as representation on CAPSO, SARB and other organizations throughout the state.
Links are binge established with the State Department of Education, Attorney General's Office, and the State Legislator's. These links provide CASCWA with an ear at the highest level of our state government.
The networking opportunities provided by CASCWA allows professionals to expand their knowledge of programs and services being offered in other parts of the state thus enriching the program alternatives they might present to their own students. Networking also provides a personal support system for Supervisors of Child Welfare and Attendance personnel. CASCWA prides itself on the quality of the personal relationships that develop between members.
CASCWA is a professional organization run by Supervisors of Child Welfare and Attendance practitioners for Supervisors of Child Welfare and Attendance personnel. We welcome, however, graduate students and others interested in the field.
