Child Abuse and Neglect Institute: The Role of the Judge - A Curriculum Guide and Instructor's Manual

The National Council of Juvenile and Family Court Judges (NCJFCJ) proudly announces the publication of the Child Abuse and Neglect Institute: The Role of the Judge - A Curriculum Guide and Instructor's Manual. The Curriculum Guide adapts the NCJFCJ's successful in-residence training program and materials to provide local and state jurisdictions with a Curriculum that can be adapted to implement their own dependency court judge trainings or offer materials as a self-directed or online course. This publication was made possible with the support of a grant from the State Justice Institute (SJI).
