Jonny Lipford is on his national tour to promote the release of his 5^th album, A Breeze At 72 Degrees. Lipford, who has been nominated for over 10 music awards with 3 wins, specializes in the Native American flute. His style of music, which has been labeled as "Hybrid Instrumental Music," pushes the boundaries of this ancient instrument.   

Recently, Lipford was selected from over 200 artists to represent the Music Matters Project with Empty Vessel Music, an organization that provides music education, music appreciation and intervention for at-risk children in metropolitan areas.

Opening for this event is local group

CASA is putting together a CASA Week committee to help plan various events. The purpose of CASA Week (May 2-7) is to increase awareness and raise funds for our program. The week ends with CASA's Got Talent on May 6th and a CASA Donor Reception on May 7th. 

We need volunteers to help plan the catering, decorations, entertainment, sponsorships, volunteer recruitment, etc. If you are interested in volunteering, please email or call us at 540-213-2272. 

Monthly Reports:

CASA Volunteers are expected to submit a monthly report to the staff by the 3^rd of each month, covering their advocacy efforts from the 1^st to the 31^st of the month prior.  This includes completion of a Monthly Report form which consists of a check list of duties, i.e. visited each child, spoke to each parent, observed visitation, etc... Along with their Monthly Report forms they are also expected to submit all of their case notes including copying and pasting emails sent and received, notes from attending court hearings, and meetings with the family and other professionals.  They keep a record of the amount of time spent on each item listed on their reports as well as mileage if applicable. 

The Volunteers' reports are reviewed each month by me and, after review of the case file, case action plans are drafted and sent back to the Volunteers.  These action plans give the Volunteers guidance and open the doors to thinking outside the box.  If the Volunteer feels more support is needed, a meeting is scheduled for them to come to the office, and we will "case action plan" together!
