W
 hy You Should Attend 
 Child welfare and juvenile
  justice practice demands more than legal knowledg
 e — it requires practitioners to navigate intersec
 ting systems, evolving court structures, and compl
 ex ethical terrain, all while advocating for clien
 ts at their most vulnerable. Whether you represent
  children, parents, or agencies, in private practi
 ce, government, or public interest work, the stake
 s are high and the legal landscape is constantly s
 hifting.   

PLI's 29th Annual Children's Law In
 stitute brings together leading practitioners, jud
 ges, and advocates to address the issues that matt
 er most to Family Court practitioners today. From 
 the latest case law in neglect, abuse, and termina
 tion of parental rights to the emerging procedural
  framework of the Youth Part, from federal school 
 stability protections for foster youth to the ethi
 cal obligations that arise when you witness miscon
 duct in the courtroom — this program delivers the 
 substantive updates and practical tools you need t
 o represent your clients with confidence and integ
 rity.
