Advocating for Undocumented Youth (1 hour of Continuing Education) Any Advocate and Staff can sign up. It’s a one time sign up through their CASA College E-Learning Page, where they can create a username and password for free. Then once signed up people can watch their webinars and view resources available anytime. Although the contact information mention applies more to Texas, we do have a resource in Watsonville called the Immigration Project that Advocates can utilized for additional questions and resources. I’m including the link to the webinar below. Contact CASA Supervisor Alma Rocha if you have any questions.
Adoption and Permanency: Identity, Openness, and Cultural Considerations - Video (.5 hour of continuing education) Module focuses on stages of childhood development, the Multi-Ethnic Placement Act and the Indian Child Welfare Act, understanding how race and culture interact with identity development for children in permanency and adoption, as well as the different types of openness in adoption.
