SUMMARY:Concession-Based Cross Examination and Expert Witnesses
DESCRIPTION:The effectiveness of cross examination is often marred by the failure to understand its function and then by employing a faulty technique. This webinar will improve this skill by both identifying the function and teaching the technique of concession-based cross examination. Attendees will learn how to prepare for cross examination\, how to identify concessions\, and then finally\, how to organize the concessions to support the ultimate argument the attorney intends to make at the conclusion of the proceeding. The webinar will then apply the concession-based technique to the cross examination of expert witnesses.    \nPresenter: \nMargaret Fent Bodman\, JD\, serves as Senior Resource Attorney at the Children’s Law Center\, University of South Carolina School of Law. After graduating from St. Mary’s University School of Law in 1991\, she began her legal career as a prosecutor at the Bexar County Criminal District Attorney’s Office in San Antonio\, Texas where she prosecuted a wide variety of offenses\, handled cases at the appellate level\, and served in the juvenile division of the office. In 1999\, Ms. Bodman moved to South Carolina joining the National College of District Attorneys at the National Advocacy Center where she developed and implemented trial advocacy programs. In 2005\, she rejoined the ranks of frontline prosecutors in Richland County\, South Carolina. There she prosecuted hundreds of violent crime cases\, specializing in the prosecution of child abuse\, primarily child sexual abuse. In 2013\, Ms. Bodman received the Criminal Justice Award from the South Carolina Victim’s Assistance Network recognizing her advocacy on behalf of victims. In 2016\, she joined the Children’s Law Center where she currently provides trainings regarding the recognition\, investigation\, and prosecution of child maltreatment and teaches a class at the law school entitled\, “Children & the Courts.” She also serves as the state coordinator for ChildFirst® forensic interviewing program and state coordinator for NACC.    \nThis webinar is FREE for NACC Members. Members\, please log in when you register for this event. This webinar is $45 for non-members.

SUMMARY:Your Feelings Make Sense: Using Validation to Build Client Rapport and Improve Interview Outcomes
DESCRIPTION:From the initial contact with child welfare personnel/law enforcement to the closure of the case\, participants’ voices\, feelings\, and perspective are often ignored at the expense of expediency and efficiency. Validation techniques allow system partners to honor the experience of those they serve and stay in the moment with them. It is a way of showing that the system cares and understands their feelings just the way they are\, without fixing or changing them. This webinar will cover the differences between emotional\, behavioral\, and cognitive validation and how to use them effectively in client contact to elevate voices\, disrupt harm\, and promote healing. \nPresenters:\nElissa (Ellie) Duncan\, JD\, CWLS\, grew up in East Texas and headed west for school. She earned her undergraduate degree at the University of California\, Santa Barbara and her Juris Doctorate at the University of San Francisco School of Law with a certificate in Public Interest Law. Ellie moved to Sacramento to be a dependency attorney at Children’s Law Center. She practiced as both an attorney and attorney supervisor for twelve years\, representing children in all aspects of dependency cases and is currently an Attorney III at the California Department of Social Services. Ellie received her Child Welfare Law Specialist Certification from the National Association of Counsel for Children in 2020 and her Compassion Fatigue Certification in 2022. \nChristina Milburn\, JD\, CWLS\, was born and raised in Western Colorado and attended the University of Colorado\, Boulder for her undergraduate degree. She then earned her Juris Doctorate degree from the University of Arizona. Christina has been practicing law for twenty years. She has practiced as a civil rights litigation attorney and dependency attorney and attorney supervisor representing both children and parents in child welfare proceedings and is currently the training attorney at Children’s Law Center of California. Christina received her Child Welfare Law Specialist Certification from the National Association of Counsel for Children in 2012\, her Trauma Informed Workplace Trainer Certification in 2020\, and her Compassion Fatigue Certification in 2021. \nThis webinar is free for NACC Members. Members\, please log in when you register for this event. This webinar is $45 for non-members.

SUMMARY:Defining “Services” Within Reasonable Efforts through a Safety Lens
DESCRIPTION:NACC Member Webinar\nFederal program requirements do not provide clarification regarding what constitutes reasonable efforts. State interpretation and definitions of reasonable efforts vary across all fifty states and the territories. A large majority of states have defined reasonable efforts with the primarily focus on treatment services provided to the family as the means to prevent removal or\, in cases where children have been placed in out-of-home care\, treatment services identified in the case plan to address the reason for out-of-home placement. The error in defining\, and applying\, reasonable efforts through a treatment service delivery lens is the absence of identifying the current safety concerns within the home that have resulted in the need to place a child and/or maintain the child in out-of-home care. During the webinar\, the presenters will explore the definition of reasonable efforts through a safety lens by defining and identifying safety services within the context of reasonable efforts. The concept of safety planning as a service\, and the correlation with reasonable efforts\, will be discussed and practical examples will be provided to attendees. \nPresenters:\nTodd Darling\, MSW\, is a Child Welfare Specialist for ACTION for Child Protection.

Todd has also served as Florida’s Northeast Region Training Manger for Child Protective Investigations. Todd’s additional experience includes foster care case manager\, child protective investigator\, and a child protection team case coordinator and assistant team coordinator.  \n Lindsay Hanson\, JD\, is a licensed attorney in the state of Florida. Lindsay recently joined the University of Florida Levin College of Law as a Staff Attorney. Prior to this\, she practiced in the area of child welfare for more than 10 years with the Florida Department of Children and Families\, where she managed 7 counties in north central Florida. During her tenure with the Department of Children and Families\, Lindsay trained attorneys\, judges\, child protective investigators\, case managers\, and stakeholders. Lindsay has also previously worked as an Assistant Public Defender and in private practice. \nTarrin Reed\, MSW is the Director of Project Management with ACTION for Child Protection. Mrs. Reed’s career in public child welfare includes responsibilities ranging from casework to supervision to program management. Prior to joining ACTION\, she was a regional staff manager for the Office of Children’s Ser vices in Anchorage\, Alaska\, where she was part of the implementation efforts for a statewide-integrated child welfare program including safety-based assessment and behavior change interventions.

SUMMARY:Counsel for Kids: Communications on a Budget

SUMMARY:Protecting Financial Futures: Prevent\, Identify & Resolve Identity Theft in Foster Care
DESCRIPTION:Identity theft in foster care is a growing concern that affects some of the most vulnerable members of society. In many cases\, children in foster care may not even be aware that their identities have been compromised until they are preparing to age out of the system or after they have left care. This issue demands a comprehensive community-wide approach involving prevention\, early identification\, and prompt resolution. In this webinar\, participants will be guided by three experts: a lived experience expert who has firsthand knowledge of the foster care system and identity theft\, a children’s rights attorney\, and the Chief Victims Officer at the Identity Theft Resource Center (ITRC). The panel will discuss examples from the San Diego community\, explore the applicable law and policies\, and present strategies and best practices. Attendees will gain practical insights into preventing and addressing identity theft within the foster care system. This is an essential opportunity for children’s attorneys to equip themselves with the knowledge and tools needed to safeguard the rights and identities of their clients. \nPresenters:\nMelanie Delgado\, JD\, is a Senior Staff Attorney and Director of Transition Age Youth Projects at the University of San Diego School of Law’s Children’s Advocacy Institute (CAI). Since 2006\, she has advocated in the area of child rights\, particularly focusing on issues related to transition age foster youth. Melanie has extensive experience in research\, writing\, and advocacy. She chairs the Children’s Advocates Roundtable in California\, where she actively engages with child advocates from around the state to amplify the voices of children and youth in Sacramento. Melanie received her law degree from USD in 2006. \nKyra Endoso is the Impact and Systems Data Manager at Just In Time for Foster Youth. Kyra is an ambitious life-long learner with a comprehensive educational background ranging from biochemistry to child development. Originally from Honolulu\, Hawaii\, Kyra struggled with her identity as a former foster youth and moved to California in order to build a new life for herself. Prior to 2017\, Kyra wouldn’t disclose her background as a former foster youth. However\, now it is her passion. Just in Time helped Kyra accept her history and advocate for those in her community. She believes that communication is the essence of human connection\, which is what drives her goal to support every individual in finding their own voice to express and advocate for their well-being. \nMona Terry\, MBA\, is the Chief Victims Officer at the Identity Theft Resource Center and is responsible for internal and public-facing victim services and victim-related publications. Mona has a passion for consumer protection and continues to seek ways to make a positive impact on all stakeholders affected by identity crimes and related issues.

SUMMARY:2023 Conference Lunch and Learn
DESCRIPTION:Preventive Legal Advocacy & Pre-Petition Representation: Where We Are\, Where We Are Headed\, and What We Are Learning\nPreventive legal advocacy and pre-petition programs are the result of strategically targeted efforts to support families through upstream civil legal services that address social determinants of health and safely reduce instances of unnecessary child welfare system involvement. Building on the work of the National Preventive Legal Advocacy Partnership\, child welfare experts and representatives from existing and emerging preventive legal advocacy programs across the country have been coming together monthly to explore issues related to the successful implementation of upstream civil legal advocacy. This session will provide a brief synopsis of the preventative legal advocacy cohort’s work and serve as an opportunity for participants to consider where the movement is headed and the important lessons we’re learning along the way. \nSOLD OUT \nNACC has a new Refund Policy this year. Attendees must confirm they have reviewed prior to purchasing registration.

SUMMARY:Supporting and Advocating for LGBTQI+ Youth: In and Out of the Courtroom
DESCRIPTION:NACC Member Webinar\nLGBTQI+ youth are overrepresented in the foster care system all over this country. They experience higher rates of suicidality and higher numbers of placements\, they report more negative experiences within the child welfare system compared to their peers\, and they experience higher rates of homelessness. In particular\, LGBTQI+ youth of color see the most negative outcomes. Many attorneys and judges currently consider LGBTQI+ advocacy and education to be a specialty or niche; in reality\, considering the disparate outcomes these youth experience\, it is of utmost importance that we educate ourselves to better support these youth and\, in particular\, the ways we can work to positively impact and alter their experiences while in the child welfare system. This webinar will discuss the disparities LGBTQI+ youth face in the child welfare system\, various legal advocacy panelists have engaged in on behalf of LGBTQI+ youth and youth of color in these systems\, and share LGBTQI+ community resources aimed at better supporting children and families.  \nPresenters:\nTamar Alexanian (she/her) is a Skadden Fellow at the Children’s Law Center of California (CLC)\, where she helps enforce the rights of LGBTQ+ foster youth in dependency proceedings.

SUMMARY:Racial Justice in Education: Intersection of Systems Involvement and Children with Disabilities Part 1: Privilege\, Education Discrimination\, Implicit Bias\, and Trauma in Education
DESCRIPTION:NACC Member Webinar\n\n\n\nApril 18\, 11:00am – 1:30pm MT / 1:00pm – 3:30pm ET \nIn the first installment of this two-part series\, attendees will learn and explore how privilege impacts education representation of children in the child welfare and juvenile justice systems. They will also learn how Critical Race Theory concepts of whiteness as property and intersectionality help us understand how our current education system has always been intentionally designed to reinforce the existing privileges in our society. Attendees will learn the history of how our education system was formed\, how discrimination based on race was manufactured through the law into our housing system\, and how this explains why schools are still so highly segregated based on race.

SUMMARY:Algorithms in Child Welfare and Juvenile Justice
DESCRIPTION:Algorithms and predictive models are increasingly used in the child welfare and juvenile systems\, yet most of them are not seen by courts\, and attorneys and court personnel may struggle to understand how they work. This webinar will demystify the use of algorithms and help practitioners understand the ways the algorithms themselves can be biased based on race and income and can be misused. Algorithms are powerful tools\, but they are not infallible\, and courts have an ethical duty to understand  how these tools might impact vulnerable children. Participants will learn why\, how\, and where these algorithmic models affect outcomes for children and families for both good and ill and their possible future use. \n\n\n\nThe presenter\, Matthew Trail\, is conducting a survey for attorneys\, law students\, and judges in child welfare practice to learn how they would make decisions if given an algorithmic predictive model risk score and asks that attendees take the survey prior to the webinar\, so that the results can be discussed. \n\n\n\n\nView the Survey\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nPresenter\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMatthew Trail\, JDMax Planck Institute for Research on Collective Goods \n\n\n\nMatthew Trail worked for fifteen years as an attorney ad litem representing children in foster care\, with a focus on representing children with disabilities and mental health issues from trauma. He began his career at a legal aid office in Florida and then moved to Houston where he eventually became managing attorney for Disability Rights Texas’ foster team. In 2020\, Matthew joined the Max Planck Institute for Research on Collective Goods Behavioral Law section as a research fellow where he researches decision-making in foster care. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis webinar is FREE for NACC Members. Members\, please log in with your member ID when you register for this event. This webinar is $45 for non-members. Non-member webinar registrants will receive access to a 90-day trial NACC membership \n\n\n\nAccredited for 2 hours of CLE in Colorado (50-minute hour). CLE approval in at least one state can streamline an attorney’s CLE application in another state.

SUMMARY:Integrating Evaluations in Practice: Lessons Learned from Representing Survivors of CSEC within a Treatment Court Model
DESCRIPTION:DECEMBER 2022 NACC MEMBER WEBINAR\n\n\n\nJuvenile treatment courts are not new\, but emerging specialized legal practices to address therapeutic needs of child-participants is a more recent trend. The CEASE Clinic\, an in-house legal clinic specializing in representing survivors of the commercial sexual exploitation of children (CSEC) in dependency proceedings\, partnered with UGA’s School of Social Work to represent survivors in Georgia’s first juvenile court CSEC treatment court. This session will discuss CEASE’s use of the ABA Model Act for Child Representation and trauma-informed practice principles in representing survivors of CSEC\, as well as how to reframe how we think about outcomes for survivors involved in the child welfare system. This session will outline a multi-tiered evaluation effort of practices\, attitudes\, beliefs on trauma (including secondary trauma)\, and ethics. \n\n\n\nPresenters: \n\n\n\nKasandra DoddAllison DunniganEmma Hetherington

SUMMARY:Authentic Family Engagement to Achieve Optimum Outcomes Using a Family-Centered Approach
DESCRIPTION:NOVEMBER 2022 NACC MEMBER WEBINAR\n\n\n\nA family-centered approach is key to authentic family engagement\, effective treatment\, sustained recovery\, and family wellbeing. There is not a universally accepted definition of a family-centered approach. Despite differences in definitions\, there are a set of common essential ingredients that are used across the continuum of providers and systems that includes a comprehensive array of clinical treatment and related support services that meet the needs of each family member\, not only of the individual requesting care. This webinar will highlight the essential ingredients required to successfully implement a family-centered approach and cover practical strategies\, challenges\, and successes from experts in the field. In addition\, it will review the state and local leadership efforts needed to ensure the implementation and sustainability of a family-centered approach. A series of companion modules developed by the National Center on Substance Abuse and Child Welfare\, Implementing a Family-Centered Approach for Families Affected By Substance Use Disorders and Involved with Children Welfare Services\, will be featured during the presentation. This resource is designed for state\, county\, and agency-level collaborative partners working together to improve systems\, services\, and outcomes for children and families affected by substance use disorders.   Presenter: Kimberly-Ann Coe\, BSW\, National Center on Substance Abuse and Child Welfare Deputy Program Director of Regional Partnership Grant Programmatic Technical Assistance  \n\n\n\nAccredited for 2 hours of CLE in Colorado (50-minute hour). CLE approval in at least one state can streamline an attorney’s CLE application in another state.

SUMMARY:Engaging\, Supporting\, and Advocating for Incarcerated Parents & Their Children
DESCRIPTION:SEPTEMBER 2022 NACC MEMBER WEBINAR\n\n\n\nIncarcerated parents and their children are at greater risk than parents who are not incarcerated of losing their relationship forever after the state initiates court proceedings. Incarcerated parents do matter and their ability to create\, maintain\, strengthen\, and/or repair their relationship with their children during incarceration reduces harm to their children\, improves child wellbeing in placement\, and increases successful reentry and reunification of parents to community. Professionals working in this system have different roles but all can do better to uplift the parent’s voice in the court process; to engage early and actively with the incarcerated parent; to support their parent-child relationship\, including the provision of remedial services\, when needed; and to remove bias from decision-making in these cases that leads to unnecessary family separation. During this webinar\, attendees will learn how legal practitioners and other decision-makers can change their outlook and advocacy when working with incarcerated parents. \n\n\n\nPresenters: \n\n\n\nStacey Allen-Chavez\, Reunified Parent \n\n\n\nCameron E. Buhl\, JD\, Managing Attorney\, Infinitum Legal Counsel\, P.S. \n\n\n\nD’Adre Cunningham\, JD\, Resource Attorney\, Incarcerated Parents Project\, Washington Defender Association \n\n\n\nRichard Pittman\, JD\, CWLS\, Deputy Public Defender\, Director of Juvenile Defender Services\, Louisiana Public Defender Board \n\n\n\nStacey Allen-Chavez is a mother of two and was formerly an incarcerated individual at Washington Correction Center for Women. Stacey is currently working on being a prison advocate for incarcerated parents.
