The Court Improvement Training Academy (CITA) is a new program designed to create a learning community comprised of judges, lawyers, and other professionals involved in the juvenile court dependency process.  CITA is funded by a grant of federal Court Improvement Program money administered by the Washington State   Administrative Office of the Courts.  CITA learning opportunities are centered around a philosophy which blends innovative interdisciplinary research and practical solutions to everyday problems faced in child welfare law.
