Community Education and Legislative Change
In order to protect the rights of parents and families facing separation, our focus must go beyond helping individuals and groups on a limited scale to solve the issues before they escalate. Our organization is actively engaged in reviewing, proposing and helping to make changes to legislation at the County and State level, with new laws and regulations to ensure fair and safe practices within family law. We highly encourage others to speak about their experiences with us and their elected officials in an effort to change or reverse policies that infringe upon the rights of families.
