NACC MS Training Series (Mondays 3:00pm-4:30pm Central; Sept 16, Sept 23, Sept 30)
This training series is designed for Mississippi attorneys who represent children, parents, and the Department. The presenters will use practice tips, hypothetical case studies, and polls, grounded in
Mississippi law, to share knowledge, skills, and best practices aimed at promoting high quality representation in Mississippi dependency cases. Click here for the Series Agenda.

Fall Red Book Training Course (Tuesdays 4:00pm-5:30pm Central; Sept 26 – Nov 12)
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 (CWLS) examination. The course is based on NACC’s legal treatise, Child Welfare Law and Practice: Representing Children, Parents, and Agencies in Neglect, Abuse, and Dependency Cases, 4th Edition (the Red Book). During eight weekly webinars, the presenter will assist participants in breaking the material down, focusing on important concepts, and learning CWLS exam-taking strategies.
