CINDY CRAFT RETIRING

AFTER 17 YEARS WITH CASA PROGRAM

CINDY CRAFT is retiring after dedicating 17 years to the CASA Program as a Volunteer Coordinator. In her role, she developed internal systems including the CASA Program's Peer Coordinators, Court Monitors and Office Support volunteers. These systems help our program manage our 425+ volunteers with minimal staffing.

During her tenure, Ms. Craft also managed all case assignments. This included handling all CASA Orders from Dependency Judges, gathering information about each case and making sure that they are assigned to a CASA volunteer.

Lastly, Ms. Craft supervised hundreds of CASA volunteers in the past seventeen years that included offering support, guidance, input and encouragement. She developed great relationships with her volunteers, many of whom continue to remain in contact over the years whether or not they are assigned a case.

Ms. Craft's gregarious personality will be missed. Our CASA Program has benefitted from her professional knowledge about domestic violence, independent living for foster youth and so much more. She leaves a legacy within our office that will continue for years to come. Best wishes are extended to her as she enters her next chapter of retirement and we are grateful for everything she has built and accomplished within our CASA Program.
