November Staff Recognition

Monthly Highlights of our CASA Community

Every month we recognize a few of our staff members for different achievements and milestones they've reached. This month we highlighted three individuals and invite you to read below to get to know them.

Melanie Jauregui

Development & Events Coordinator

How long have you been with CASA?

I've been with CASA 2.5 years.

Fun Fact:

I have a 7 year old labrador- golden retriever mix, named Kerbert. I rescued him in college and he's been the best companion ever since!

Melanie is recognized this month for going above and beyond when it came to planning, organizing, and running our 7th Annual Gallery of Hope to make it one of our biggest events ever!

Marcela Perez

Advocate Supervisor

How long have you been with CASA?

I've been with CASA a little over 6 months.

Fun Fact:

I am trilingual - Portuguese, Spanish, and English

Marcela was recognized this month for going the extra mile on a particular case where the child was facing a disciplinary hearing at school. She made sure the Ad Litem was aware and able to attend to ensure the school district was following proper protocol. This allowed the child to have a better outcome on his case.
