Advocating for Equity with Alejandro Victoria
In this episode, we talk with Alejandro Victoria, Director of Volunteer Admissions at CASA of Travis County, about the connections between CASA advocacy and the nation-wide calls for racial equity that have come to the forefront this summer. Tune in for a discussion of how CASA volunteers can proactively support youth in processing current events, as well as ways in which advocates can bring an equity lens to their work with children and families as COVID-19 continues to have a disproportionately devastating impact on communities of color in Texas.
