Order Appointing Or Discharging CASA Volunteer {CCJP 0628}

CCJP 0628 - ORDER APPOINTING OR DISCHARGING CASA VOLUNTEER. This form is issued by the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois, in the Child Protection Division of the Department of Juvenile Justice and Child Protection. It is used in child protection cases involving minors to either assign or discharge a Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) volunteer. When appointing, the order directs the CASA organization to attempt to assign a volunteer to advocate for the best interests of the child(ren) involved. The CASA volunteer is tasked with reporting to the court on specific issues such as placement, services provided to the minor and parents, compliance with protective orders, visitation, or other concerns. The order also sets a status date by which CASA must report back on the assignment and may waive the appearance of certain parties. The volunteer’s appointment continues until a final report is submitted unless the court orders otherwise. If the CASA’s involvement is no longer needed, the form is used to officially discharge the volunteer from the case. www.FormsWorkflow.com
