CASA of Central Oregon is hiring!
CASA of Central Oregon recruits, trains and supports volunteers who advocate for the best interests of children in the foster care system. Our volunteers work in the courts and throughout the communities in Crook, Deschutes and Jefferson counties. Our CASA staff is growing to include a full-time Training Coordinator position. This position will recruit and train adult volunteer Court Appointed Special Advocates ("CASAs"). The Training Coordinator will be responsible for leading all volunteer advocate training, and conducting all of the pre and post-training application reviews, new volunteer interviews, and all National CASA compliance work for new volunteer advocates (including overseeing background checks, etc.). This position will also lead CASA's continuing education program, and CASA's peer mentor training and support programs.
The successful candidate will have a minimum of a bachelor's degree, 2+ years of teaching and/or adult education experience, and experience with recruiting and working with volunteers.
