Supporting Judges and Judicial Officers: Improving Decision Making
on Behalf of Children and Adolescents
in Family Court

Funded by the Van Pelt Foundation, this initiative provided regular training, including case-based consultation, with the family court judges in matters pertaining to children involved with the child welfare and juvenile justice system as well as child custody proceedings. Dr. Annie Steinberg conducted weekly large group didactic sessions alternating with breakout group discussions on topics of interest to the participating judges.
