SUMMARY:Understanding & Litigating the Harms of Child Removal Training
DESCRIPTION:Understanding & Litigating the Harms of Child Removal \nBecause There’s No Place Like Home \nThe involuntary separation of children from their parents is devastating for the whole family\, inevitably causing distinct and long-term harms to the children and to their parents. This two-part training will offer a deeper dive into these harms and explore what we can do to improve outcomes for our clients. \nPart 1: May 14\, 2024\, 2:00-4:00pm \nThousands of children are separated from their families every year in the name of “child welfare.” In this session\, Professor Shanta Trivedi (author of “The Harm of Child Removal” and the forthcoming article “‘Am I Still a Parent?’ The Devastating Effects of Family Policing on Parents”) will examine the harms that children and parents experience in the family regulation system\, and discuss strategies to help practitioners identify\, prevent and/or mitigate these harms. You can learn more about Professor Trivedi here. Register here. \nPart 2: May 23\, 2024\, 2:00-4:00pm \nCustody decisions aren’t just about the parents and their conduct; the court also must consider the harm to the child from removal\, family separation\, and placement in the foster system. Our judges don’t always agree\, though. In this session we will discuss the relevant legal requirements in Massachusetts\, share practice tips\, and introduce resources the working group has developed to help attorneys litigate the harms of removal. Register here. \nThis program is presented by The CAFL Harms of Removal Working Group. Each session is approved for 2 CAFL CLEs. Attendance at both sessions is encouraged but is not required. \nNOTE: 4 CLE credit for each webinar for attorneys on each of the following panels: CAFL\, CAFL Appeals

SUMMARY:Why Race Matters: Facing Your Identity
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Cheri Beasley\, Former North Carolina Supreme Court Chief Justice \nDate: May 13\, 2024 1:00-3:00pm; Remote & In Person Event \nThe Dred Scott decision said “They Have no rights that we must value.” Throughout the history of our country the value placed on the individual rights of individuals with specific identities has shifted. Today we are in the midst of another shift. How do we\, as public defenders\, charged with championing the rights of the indigent and often\, the people from marginalized communities\, ensure that the individuality of our clients and ourselves are celebrated in our work. Our speaker will inspire us to be bold in our advocacy and dedicated to our core values.
