SUMMARY:Webinar on the New Family Treatment Court in Hampden County Juvenile Court
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Many of our clients struggle with substance use disorders. The traditional court system has historically penalized our clients for what is now known as the natural course of sobriety which includes relapse. We are excited about the new Family Treatment Court in Hampden County (“FTC”). The FTC offers our clients a path to sobriety that has the potential to speed the process of reunification in a less formal and more supportive environment while helping them pursue recovery. As anticipated\, there are many questions about the FTC. Please come to a training on March 6 from 1-3:30 p.m. on Zoom to learn about how Family Treatment Court works. During the training you will have an opportunity to hear from someone with lived experience of the Family Treatment Court in Franklin County as well as court staff and CAFL. We will give a brief overview of the challenges our parent clients with substance use disorder face\, discuss why FTC can be beneficial to our clients\, and how it works. We will also cover advising clients about it\, the role of counsel in FTC cases\, and dispelling misconceptions about FTC. There will be plenty of time for questions at the end. And the training is worth 2.5 CAFL CLEs! \nMarch 6\, 1:00-3:30 PM.\nNote: 2.5 CLE credit for each webinar for attorneys on each of the following panels: CAFL\, CAFL Appeals. \nRegister here: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZMkfu2srT4uGdzXMJh6-jC1HqWO9-DLkL-c[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:Negotiating and Litigating Meaningful Family Time
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Monday March 4\, 2024\, and Thursday March 14\, 2024. \nResearch has shown that the frequency and quality of family time significantly impacts the chances for reunification and leads to more positive outcomes for children. This makes ensuring frequent\, quality family time a cornerstone of every C&P and CRA. Over the course of two afternoons\, we will provide an overview of the law of “visitation” – including DCF’s obligations\, and the court’s sources of authority to enter orders. Using an interactive format\, we will discuss strategies for successfully negotiating and litigating for meaningful family time and share tips for removing barriers to positive family time experiences. Some advance reading required (~1 hour)\, entitles practitioners to an additional CLE for a total of 6 CLE credits. \nRegister here: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZErcuCvqzkvHdHUCisSbQRqSP9T6DjuQn9s[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”18526″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” onclick=”custom_link” link=”https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZErcuCvqzkvHdHUCisSbQRqSP9T6DjuQn9s”][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:CAFL Appellate Panel Certification Training Orientation
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] \nSeeking Counsel for Child Welfare/State Intervention Appeals\nThe Committee for Public Counsel Services (CPCS) is seeking private attorneys to join the Children and Family Law (CAFL) Division appellate panel.  CAFL appeals are appeals of final judgments in care and protection\, termination of parental rights\, guardianship of a minor\, contested adoption\, and other child welfare/state intervention proceedings.  Most cases concern intervention by the Massachusetts Department of Children and Families in family life.  The work of the CAFL appellate panel attorneys includes interviewing and visiting clients\, conducting legal research\, writing motions and briefs\, and arguing cases before the Massachusetts Appeals Court and Supreme Judicial Court.  All CAFL appeals get oral argument.  Private panel attorneys handle the vast majority of CAFL appeals; other CAFL appeals are handled by the CAFL Appellate (staff) Unit.  This posting is not for a staff position; it is for private attorneys to obtain certification to receive\, and be compensated for\, CAFL appellate appointments.  Compensation is $85/hour.  During the first year after completing the mandatory training\, newly certified attorneys are expected to take at least one appellant and one appellee assignment.  Panel members should expect to spend about 100-250 hours on each CAFL appeal. New CAFL appellate attorneys receive free mentoring for several years.  Private panel attorneys submit bills to CPCS and must agree to follow all billing and other requirements set forth in the CPCS Assigned Counsel Manual\, available at: \nhttps://www.publiccounsel.net/assigned-counsel-manual/ \nKindly direct any questions to Abigail Salois\, Supervising Staff Attorney\, CPCS/CAFL Appellate Panel Support Unit\, at: asalois@publiccounsel.net. \nQualifications: \nApplicants must have the following minimum qualifications: \n\n\n\nDemonstrated proficiency in legal research and writing; and\n At least one of the following:\ni.      Two years of child welfare/state intervention trial experience;\nii.     Primary authorship of two or more appellate briefs in other subjects;\niii.    A recent appellate clerkship\, substantial editing experience for a law journal\, publication of a law journal article\, or other substantial research and writing experience.\n\n\n\nApplicants must be admitted to the Mass. bar or be eligible for admission by December 12\, 2023. \nAdmission into the training is competitive and not all applicants will be admitted.  All admitted applicants must attend the four-day CAFL appellate training program scheduled for January 30\, February 1\, 6\, and 8\, 2024.  The trainings\, which will be conducted by Zoom\, will take place from 9:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. each day.  There will also be an orientation by Zoom on January 24\, 2024 from 4:00-5:00 p.m.  The agency actively seeks to diversify its private attorney panel membership. \nApplications: CAFL Appellate Panel Application – 2024  \nApplications are due on December 11\, 2023\, but will be accepted on a rolling basis until the training is filled. [/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:CAFL Racial Justice Task Force Fall Meeting with author Roxanna Asgarian

The book investigates the case of a white couple\, who drove off a cliff and committed murder-suicide with their six adopted Black children.  And through years of research and interviews\, journalist Roxanna Asgarian shines a light on a child welfare system that refused to see the abuse suffered by these children prior to their murder. \nThe book has been called\, “A harrowing account…[and] a powerful critique of [the] foster care system…We Were Once a Family is a wrenching book” by The New York Times\, and “A riveting indictment of the child welfare system…[A] bracing gut punch of a book” by The Washington Post. \nWe hope you can join us via Zoom on Thursday\, September 21\, 2023\, from 5-7pm\, to learn more about what RJTF has been doing and engage in this book discussion with author Roxanna Asgarian.  Please register in advance for the discussion to access the zoom link as there are only 100 spots. The first 25 registrants will receive a free copy of the book and we hope that you all have ample time to read her work prior to September 21st and come with your questions for a candid conversation with the author.  Register in advance here: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZUudeitqzosE90hIyu_QOWwxuCnFwIY38OR \n [/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
