LEARN. INSPIRE. CONNECT.
Fri. October 4th – Sun. October 6th, 2019
at the
Annenberg Community Beach House
415 Pacific Coast Highway ~ Santa Monica, CA
The weekend provided an opportunity for protective parents, domestic violence advocates, legal and mental health professionals, policymakers, and anyone who cares about child safety to learn and connect. We came together to inspire meaningful systemic change. We envision transforming the system so child safety is the number one priority in child custody litigation cases.
We also celebrated our Champions for Children’s Justice Award Winners at our semi-formal awards reception overlooking the Pacific Ocean.
