Congregate Care & Civil Rights February 24, 2022

Print Friendly, PDF & Email

The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) enforces the rights of children placed in congregate care settings (e.g., group homes, residential treatment facilities, secure detention) through the child welfare and juvenile justice systems. Participants in this session will learn about DOJ’s enforcement of federal civil rights protections, including the community integration mandate of the Americans with Disabilities Act, and statutes that protect the rights of incarcerated persons and prohibit a pattern or practice of unconstitutional conduct in juvenile justice systems and facilities. The presenters will discuss the use of concepts from federal civil rights and child welfare laws in individual cases and will consider the leadership role that advocates can play in achieving systemic reform.

This webinar is FREE for NACC Members.  Members, please log in with your member ID when you register for this event. This webinar is $45 for non-members. Non-member webinar registrants will receive access to a 90-day trial NACC membership.
