The Kentucky CASA Network is excited to present Advocacy at the Core: 2025 Kentucky CASA Conference in Covington this fall. Conference attendees will gain knowledge, skills, and understanding aimed at enhancing and supporting the best interest advocacy provided to children served by CASA volunteers. This year's event will provide sessions centered around the Core Model of CASA best interest advocacy, which includes the following components of the CASA role: Learn, Engage, Recommend, Collaborate, and Report.
- Learn: These sessions will increase information gathering skills utilized during best interest advocacy
- Engage: These sessions will enhance knowledge and skills utilized when developing relationships with abused, neglected, and dependent children
- Recommend: These sessions will increase understanding of services available in communities, which services and supports are most effective for supporting the safety and permanency of children, and how to clearly articulate recommendations for these services and supports to judges in the dependency, neglect, and abuse dockets
- Collaborate: These sessions will provide updates on trends in local child welfare and court practice/policy, enhance understanding of the court process, and gain best practices for collaborating with stakeholders to meet children’s needs
- Report: These sessions will enhance court report writing and case monitoring skills
We are working hard at planning out this year's agenda, speakers, and session descriptions - please check back soon for updates!
