SUMMARY:Working with clients who are Deaf and hard of hearing and their families: a presentation by the Massachusetts Commission for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing (MCDHH)
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]In Massachusetts and elsewhere in the United States\, access to the courts and legal services by Deaf and hard of hearing individuals remains problematic. This happens for a variety of reasons – insufficient numbers of legal American Sign Language interpreters\, Certified Deaf Interpreters (CDI) and Communication Access Realtime Translation (CART) providers. \nAdditionally\, knowledge related to the provision of appropriate communication access services remains elusive\, as does the proper implementation of such services across a wide spectrum of legal and social services. \nThis presentation by MCDHH will help you to understand what appropriate communication access is; what cultural\, communicative\, procedural and technical considerations to take into account when working with Deaf and hard of hearing individuals and families\, and how MCDHH staff can work with you to ensure positive outcomes for our constituency. \nOrganizer: Deborah Cassell\, CAFL Resource Attorney (Barnstable County)\, deborahcassell_atty@hotmail.com \nZoom link: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/82494978446?pwd=ZGNDc3hDK2tTS0J0dDZLZktJRDFGdz09 \nCLE: 2 CAFL[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:Monthly CAFL Race Equity Drop-In – Advocating for Our Clients Who Are Limited English Proficient and Their Children
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Next Race Equity Drop in July 26\, 1:00-2:00 – Advocating for Our Clients Who Are Limited English Proficient and Their Children \nHave your clients had their court cases continued over and over again because no interpreter was available?   Has DCF told your parent client to attend a service that is only offered in a language the client does not speak?   Do you represent a child who is losing the ability to communicate with their parents because they are placed in an English only speaking home?  Are parent-child visits cancelled because there’s no interpreter for the DCF worker observing the visit?  Are your clients routinely handed documents written in a language they cannot read?  After several colleagues raised issues around language access at our last few drop ins\, we decided to devote our next session to the challenges faced by our clients who are limited English proficient.  Please join us on July 26\, 1:00-2:00 to brainstorm with colleagues on how to protect the civil and due process rights of our clients who are limited English proficient.  You can register to attend here. \nApproved for 1 CAFL CLE.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:Monthly CAFL Race Equity Drop-In
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Have you ever witnessed or experienced implicit bias or racism in your CAFL casework and didn’t know how to respond in the moment? Do you feel like you could use some ideas on how to respond if this happens to you? Join us for the next CAFL Racial Equity Drop-In on May 30\, 2023. Come brainstorm with colleagues in a no-judgment and no-pressure environment on how to respond to these incidents when they occur and beyond! We started this conversation last month and it was so productive we agreed to continue the conversation with the goal of combining our ideas into a “guide” for practitioners. You do not need to have been at an earlier drop-in to come to this one. We look forward to seeing those who can come and to continuing the great\, substantive\, creative conversations we are having at these drop-ins.

SUMMARY:Dorothy Roberts: "How the Family Policing System Endangers Survivors and Their Children"
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Jane Doe Inc.\, the MA Coalition Against Sexual Assault and Domestic Violence. \n“Children are taken on grounds of neglect where there isn’t any evidence of severe abuse\,” said Roberts\, the author of Torn Apart: How the Child Welfare System Destroys Black Families – and How Abolition Can Build a Safer World. “We could imagine a better way of dealing with the families’ and the children’s needs without resorting to this traumatic intervention of seizing children. We shouldn’t think of them as aberrant cases.” \nHow are adult and child survivors of sexual assault and domestic violence\, especially BIPOC survivors\, impacted by what we call the child welfare system? How is the family policing system connected to sexual violence and the trauma to prison pipeline?  \nMany survivors become entangled into the child welfare/family policing system in the course of their daily lives – when accessing education\, housing\, health care\, services for survivors of SA/DV and so much more. What is our role as anti-violence survivor-centered advocates in this? How can we continue to support survivors and their families when state agencies become barriers\, tools of surveillance\, and sites of increased oppression and risk of experiencing violence? \nJoin us for a virtual talk with Professor Dorothy E Roberts who will explore these tensions and provide insight in how we can continue to support survivors and their families. \nASL & CART will be provided. Please request any other accommodation needs in your registration.\nThis session will be recorded; HOWEVER\, it will only be accessible with a protected link for a year. \nAbout Dorothy Roberts: \nDorothy Roberts is the 14th Penn Integrates Knowledge Professor and George A.
