How and Why to Communicate with Parties and the Court

About Course
It feels like I am forever being asked why a person or family with an interest in a child, like a foster parent, doesn’t know about a court date; or isn’t asked about how the child is doing in their home; or isn’t informed about changes in the child’s life, including even a change in placement. Join to learn how to advocate for yourself and the child and get a road map and tips on How and Why to Communicate with Parties and the Court.

this lady had alot of good advice,but with her switching the slides back and forth it got kinda confuising
Great information
Tons of information over 66 slides!
Awesome Information
This course was very informative.
I live in Michigan, and if this was mentioned before I took the course, I missed it. I do believe that most of the material applies to Michigan as well. I took the course because I have not felt like I have been heard ever. I have been a foster parent for 30 years, and I have seen that a lot of information is not getting to the Judge, and I wanted to know how to go about getting that information to the Judge. I am 65 years old, so adoption is no longer on our minds. Just in the last few years, I have noticed that the information I gave the caseworkers is not getting to the next caseworker.
The court room did not ask to hear what foster parent know. I sat and shook my head when false information was given as the truth. It good to know that we can write a letter to the Judge to be heard.
Great insights and resources.
Excellent
There was a lot of valuable info to cover in this hour and the speaker did a very good job but I'm not sure I was able to absorb it all due to the amount of information.
Always an excellent resource on court related issues
