As part of the new Texas CASA Pre-Service Volunteer Curriculum and Facilitation Guide, we will be hosting regional trainings for facilitators. Registration is now open for the first regional Pre-Service Curriculum Facilitator’s Train, taking place on Sept. 24-25 on South Padre Island. The next regional trainings will take place in or near Lubbock, Dallas, Houston and Central Texas, with dates and locations being finalized soon.
Registration for this first training is open to the different regions in this order:
- Registration is open to the Southern and Coastal Regions only, until Aug. 28, 2018.
- Registration will then be open to All Regions.
To allow for in-depth work, each training is limited to 30 participants, or two per program.
