In August, NACC’s Board of Directors approved a new policy framework for NACC. The updated policy framework reaffirms NACC’s founding beliefs in high-quality legal representation and access to justice in child protection court proceedings. It also reflects our ongoing commitments to youth voice, race equity, and family integrity, and the urgent need for change in a system that has too often caused harm in the name of protection.
