CASA of Del Norte Launches New Website - Monday, August 23, 2004! www.casadn.org
After many months of creative effort on the part of the design team (www.designingthecoast.com) , the staff and others, CASA of Del Norte has an active website. The site has many features including a newsletter, a calendar of events, information about the mission of CASA of Del Norte, and how to donate to the General Fund.
Upcoming events will be highlighted each month. There will be information about our local program, which will be useful to our advocates, the Friends of CASA volunteers, and our staff and Board Members. All current advocates and board members will receive a user id and password for access to the advocate area of the site
Some areas of the website are not fully active and you will notice that when you click on those sections, but we are working to complete the calendar and newsletter as quickly as possible. The website is a communication tool. We hope you find it useful and we look forward to your input and feedback.
