SUMMARY:National Book Club - Spring 2026
DESCRIPTION:The new National CASA/GAL Book Club selection is Poverty\, by America by Matthew Desmond. \nIn Poverty\, by America\, Desmond challenges the notion that poverty is inevitable\, revealing how it is actively produced and sustained by systems\, policies\, and everyday choices. With clarity and urgency\, the book asks readers to examine who benefits from poverty in the United States—and what responsibility we share in ending it. Grounded in research and lived experience\, the book calls for collective action and moral reckoning\, making it a powerful selection for advocates committed to children and families. \nJoin us for a series of facilitated discussions beginning March 11\, 2026\, with sessions held at 10am PT | 1pm ET and 1pm PT | 4pm ET\, and continuing at the same times on April 1 and  April 15. \nRegister for the first discussion here: \n10am PT | 1pm ET https://nationalcasagal.zoom.us/meeting/register/-bMhwAa4T7eU0_F8DOei4Q#/registration \n1pm PT | 4pm ET https://nationalcasagal.zoom.us/meeting/register/Jv21Pc20RaWrx7OZZcCDCw#/registration \nDiscussion one will cover chapters 1-3. In these opening chapters\, Desmond challenges common assumptions about poverty and reframes it as a systemic issue rooted in policy\, power\, and collective choices—not individual failure. Together\, we’ll explore how poverty impacts children and families\, why it persists in one of the wealthiest nations in the world\, and what this means for advocates working in child welfare. \nRegistration for the following discussions is available under meetings.

SUMMARY:CASA Book Club - March 2026
DESCRIPTION:he CASA Book Club will be meeting on Thursday\, March 19\, at 6 pm at the Jeffco Courthouse. We will convene in a meeting room on the first floor. Go left at the elevators.  \nThe movie we will watch and discuss is The Blind Side (2009). This film is a story of Michael Oher\, a homeless teen taken in and adopted (?) by a family. Michael eventually becomes an NFL football player. \nThe movie was chosen in part for issues related to older youth\, the lifelong impact of care/adoption of older youth\, and legal aspects of adoption/care. The book will provide some links to a new CASA role\, Youth in Transition (YIT). Additional insight into this new role will be discussed. \nThe actor who played Michael\, Quinton Aaron is currently battling health issues. \nThe movie is available on Amazon. \nWatch the movie and come prepared to discuss how the movie impacts your current or past cases and how we might apply concepts to our mission. Watching and coming to the meeting earns training credit. Continuing education credit changes for our Book Club are also on the agenda. \nNote that our CASA Book Club meets regularly every other month on the 3rd Thursday and alternates between books and movies related to foster care\, adoption and fulfilling the mission of the best interests of children. \nContact Larry Varys with questions at larryvarys@aol.com.
