Extensive travel is required to conduct business of the National Council of Juvenile and Family Court Judges (NCJFCJ).  Members, staff, faculty, consultants, and program participants frequently travel at the expense of NCJFCJ.  It is the policy of NCJFCJ that such travel is performed as economically as possible and is consistent with NCJFCJ policy and federal guidelines for this purpose.  It is also the desire of NCJFCJ to reimburse fairly those who have legitimate out-of-pocket expenses incurred by traveling on its behalf.

Persons traveling at NCJFCJ’s expense will limit their expense claims to the period of the NCJFCJ-related meeting.  If a participant finds it necessary to arrive at the meeting location the night before the meeting, NCJFCJ will provide reimbursement for expenses related to that evening’s accommodations.  Similarly, if an evening session commences a meeting, expenses will be reimbursed for travel that day.
