NCJFCJ in the State of New Hampshire
NEW HAMPSHIRE
In 2024, the NCJFCJ’s work impacted approximately 4 million families across the nation. Our publications amassed over 94,000 views, the team fulfilled over 150 requests for technical assistance, and trained over 15,000 judges, judicial officers, attorneys, and other juvenile and family-court related professionals across the nation.
The NCJFCJ’s Judicial Education Development Initiative on Domestic Violence (JEDI-DV) presented the Enhancing Responses to Domestic Violence for the New Hampshire Circuit Court workshop in Concord for judicial officers. Faculty members provided training on practical courtroom exercises, coordinated community response, custody/parenting time and domestic violence, and judicial leadership.
The New Hampshire Child Abuse and Neglect Statewide Mentor Model Court is recognized for its efforts to improve outcomes for abused and neglected children, juvenile offenders, and their families.
Multidisciplinary campus professionals representing student conduct, law enforcement, and prevention participated in the Office on Violence Against Women’s Campus Training and Technical Assistance Institute (TTI), an opportunity extended to each campus grantee five times over the course of three years. These in-person institutes, combined with webinars and intensive, customized support from national experts, are designed to help college and university campuses enhance their capacity to address domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking on campus.
Judges and justice system professionals from New Hampshire received specialized child welfare, domestic violence, and juvenile justice training on current and cutting-edge topics and research during the NCJFCJ’s Annual Conference and National Conference on Juvenile Justice.
One judicial officer from New Hampshire attended the 2024 Institute for New Juvenile and Family Court Judges. The Institute is designed specifically for state and tribal judicial officers who are new to the bench, newly assigned to a juvenile or family rotation, or who are returning to the juvenile and family court bench after other assignments and desire a refresher course. This intensive and interactive four and a half day program, previously known as Core College, is designed so participants can leave with increased knowledge, practical tools, and an essential foundation of best practices to use in the cases coming before them.
Judge Susan B. Carbon (Ret.) of Manchester is a NCJFCJ Past President.
