Request/Subject
Presentation of CASA's (Court Appointed Special Advocate) Summer Recruitment Campaign
Background Information
The CASA program has been in place in Gila County for many years.  CASA of Gila County has recently stepped up its recruiting efforts in an attempt to acquire more volunteers for the program.  There is a great need for more advocacy involvement in the southern portion of the County due to the high increase in juvenile dependency petitions.  With funds from Gila County CASA's parent organization, CASA of Arizona, a summer recruitment campaign has been implemented.  Various radio ads are being aired on local radio stations.  CASA of Gila County is also scheduled to appear on "Top of the Hour" with KMOG radio station on June 25, 2019; "Community Forum" with KRIM radio station on July 10, 2019; and KRDE radio station in July.  

Patti Dremler, Program Manager for CASA of Gila County, has requested to present information to the Board of Supervisors regarding CASA's summer recruitment campaign.
Evaluation
CASA's summer recruitment campaign is underway.  It would be advantageous to present information on CASA's summer recruitment efforts to the Board of Supervisors and to the public. 
Conclusion
It would be beneficial for Ms. Dremler to present information to the Board on CASA's summer recruitment campaign to spread the word about the need for CASA volunteers and hopefully entice members of the public to participate in the CASA program in Gila County.  
Recommendation
James Menlove, County Manager, has authorized Ms. Dremler to present this information to the Board.  
Suggested Motion
Presentation of information pertaining to CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocate) of Gila County's summer recruitment campaign.  (Patti Dremler)
