SUMMARY:Online Red Book Training Course - Spring 2024
DESCRIPTION:Tuesdays\, 5:00-6:30pm ET. \nThe Red Book Training Course is an exciting opportunity for practitioners to brush up on their knowledge of federal child welfare law and learn tips to enhance their representation of children\, parents\, or the agency. NACC’s signature Red Book Training Course covers major dependency practice competency areas and is designed to assist you in preparing for the Child Welfare Law Specialist examination. The 2024 course will include material based on the Fourth Edition of Child Welfare Law and Practice: Representing Children\, Parents\, and Agencies in Neglect\, Abuse\, and Dependency Cases. During weekly webinars\, the presenter will assist participants in breaking the material down\, focusing on important concepts\, and learning CWLS exam-taking strategies. This course will not cover every part of every chapter. The instructor has made intentional decisions about what information to cover in the time that is allotted for the course. If part of a chapter is not covered\, that does not mean that content will not appear on the exam. Therefore\, you should incorporate any parts that are not covered into your self-study plans.  \nThe registration fee is $225 per person for groups and NACC members ($125 for CWLS; $300 for nonmembers) and includes access to live sessions\, recordings\, the electronic Red Book\, and the RBTC workbook. Email Training@NACCchildlaw.org for group registration. All sessions will be recorded and available for later viewing at the attendee’s convenience.   Hardcopies of the Red Book are available for purchase. A hardcopy Red Book is included in the Child Welfare Law Specialist application fee. \nRed Book Training Course 2024 Syllabus \nBecome a Member of NACC for discount pricing.  \n

SUMMARY:Humility as an Act of Compassion
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the second of a four-part webinar series where we delve into a vital yet often overlooked aspect of child welfare work: the wellbeing of the professionals behind the scenes. Humility as an Act of Compassion is a webinar designed for child welfare lawyers to explore the essential role of humility in our practice. This facilitated podcast-style conversation will highlight the importance of recognizing our knowledge gaps\, understanding and mitigating our own biases\, and navigating the subjective nature of the best interests standard. We will also examine the difference between compassion and benevolence\, emphasizing how genuine compassion and connection drives effective advocacy. \nParticipants will gain a renewed perspective on humility as a strength\, practical tools for self-reflection\, and actionable strategies to enhance their compassionate advocacy in child welfare cases. This webinar is ideal for legal professionals committed to improving their practice and making a positive impact on the lives of children and families. Join us for this session and learn how embracing humility can lead to more compassionate and effective child welfare practice. \nPresenters:\nSheri Freemont\, JD\, proudly serves on the Board of Directors for the National Association of Counsel for Children. She is the managing director of the Judicial and National Engagement consulting team at  Casey Family Programs\, aiming to support judges and lawyers nationally to apply gold standard principles for children and families in the child welfare system. \nVivek Sankaran\, JD\, CWLS\, directs the Child Advocacy Law Clinic and Child Welfare Appellate Clinic at the University of Michigan Law School and co-founded LawLifeProfs\, which promotes wellbeing and compassion in legal spaces. \nSheri and Vivek are graduates of the Applied Compassion Certification Program through CCARE (Center for Compassion and Altruism Research and Education) at Stanford University\, where they are developing materials\, workshops\, and retreats to support compassion for lawyers in child welfare practice. \nShrounda Selivanoff\, BAS\, is the Social Service Manager at the Washington State Office of Public Defense Parent Representation Program.  She brings a fierce and passionate voice advocating for systemic change for parents and their children involved with the child welfare system. She was previously involved with the system due to tough life challenges. \nShrounda’s child welfare experience birthed an advocate seeking to destigmatize parents and to elevate the need for our society to value the diversity and uniqueness of families. Shrounda’s work is focused on centering parent perspectives to support their families. Shrounda relentlessly pursues policy and system change toward preserving and strengthening families with a North Star\, empowering and valuing parents as partners\, and keeping families together. She keenly understands the power and impact of preserving families and the critical need for individual and collective transformation for this to occur.                                                   \nCLE\nCalifornia (60-minute hour) \nThis participatory activity has been accredited by the State Bar of California for a maximum of 1.5 hours of Wellness Competence credit.
