POSTPONED - What's Next? Supporting Children, Youth, and Families in a Post-Abolition World
Thursday, April 13, 2023 | 9:30 AM EDT - 5:00 PM EDT
It is with deep regret that we have postponed this event, "What's Next? Supporting Children, Youth, and Families in a Post-Abolition World," scheduled for tomorrow, Thursday, April 13, 2023. As many of you are likely aware, several unions, including the faculty union, are on strike at Rutgers. In solidarity with the strikers, we do not feel it is appropriate to hold the symposium at this time.
We plan to reschedule the event in the early fall and will be back in touch with a new date. We sincerely hope that you will be able to make this new date. Our apologies for any inconvenience.
The symposium is about how we can transform our family regulation system. The system has been found to be racist, dysfunctional, and harmful to children and families, especially families of color, so much so that many people have called for its abolition. The symposium is intended to focus on solutions. We will begin with a panel with people with lived experience who are now working to improve the system and then will have three panels focused on how we can break down the current system and what various policies and initiatives might help to transform the system.
Co-sponsored by Rutgers Child Advocacy Clinic; Center for Gender Justice and Law (CGJL); Women’s Rights Law Reporter; Rutgers Law School; and Rutgers Institute for Professional Education.
