The National Council of Juvenile and Family Court Judges’ (NCJFCJ) 2019 Annual Report, Reflection & Redefinition, looks back at the extraordinary achievements of the NCJFCJ in 2019.
The members of the NCJFCJ are the driving force for change. In 2019, the NCJFCJ was proud to have members in every state, including D.C., and international countries and territories. The NCJFCJ team traveled more than 2.7 million miles to train, educate, and meet with 6,600 judges, judicial officers, and other juvenile and family-court related professionals in 2019.
Achievements featured in this Annual Report are only possible due to the hard work of our Board of Directors, members, staff, and supporters around the world.
