Stronger Partnerships, Safer Childhoods

Effective Collaboration for Family & Children Services Caseworkers, Guardian Ad Litems, and Court Appointed Special Advocates
About this Event

Join us for a structured, interdisciplinary learning experience designed to enhance collaboration among Family & Children Services (FCS), Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASAs), and Guardian Ad Litems (GALs). Participants will gain a clear understanding of each discipline’s distinct and shared responsibilities, ethical and legal obligations, and professional expectations. The program emphasizes effective communication, coordinated practice, and constructive conflict resolution, with the ultimate goal of improving outcomes for children. Sessions are led by a range of community service providers and judicial leadership, including Judge Lancaster.
