Fight Judicial Child Trafficking
The Center for Judicial Excellence has been working for 15 years to expose the corruption in family courts that has forced more than one million American children in the past 25 years into ongoing unsupervised contact with a parent that is physically or sexually harming them. Please watch our 3-minute video about the crisis in the family courts below. Thanks to Billie Greif, Jon Leland & Alan Phillips for their stellar video work:
Anyone familiar with our work in California knows that the Center for Judicial Excellence has remained steadfast in our commitment to protecting children’s rights in the courts.
We are honored to bring you the voices of children whose lives have been forever altered by the widespread corruption in America’s family courts. These young people are now speaking out- some for the very first time- about how they survived their respective ordeals. We believe that these “ambassadors of truth” are a force to be reckoned with. Their powerful first-hand accounts place the onus for the family court crisis squarely where it belongs- on the courts themselves.
