39th National Child Welfare Law Conference

2016: Promoting Excellence, Building Community, Advancing Justice.

August 12–14, 2016 in Philadelphia, PA

We strengthened the substantive elements of the conference you value the most — research, practice area updates, increased number of session choices, and packed with CLE. We also provided opportunities for you to network, visit with colleagues and friends, recharge, and visit the wonderful city of Philadelphia.
