We're just 1 week away from JUSTICE FOR FAMILIES! If you haven't already, please register today. Registration is open to all and does not require a donation.
Today, we're thrilled to announce that we will be honoring NY State Senator Montgomery with the 2020 Family Justice Award for her work creating a more just and fair child welfare and juvenile justice system in New York State.
Senator Montgomery’s leadership on the issues that impact the families we work with has been invaluable. In the area of child welfare, Senator Montgomery holds a deep understanding of the issues that our clients face and the ways the system disproportionately impacts Black and Brown families, especially those from low income communities.
On Sept 15, 2020, please join us in honoring Senator Montgomery at JUSTICE FOR FAMILIES! CFR's very own Litigation Supervisor for Government Affairs and Policy, Tehra Coles will lead a powerful discussion with the Senator as she presents her with the Family Justice Award!
Please help spread the word - invite your friends, family and colleagues to join!
Our mission is to keep families together.
We provide families in crisis with free legal assistance and social work services to enable children to stay with their families safely. CFR works to keep children out of foster care entirely or keep their time in care to a minimum.
Every year, CFR serves more than 3,000 families in New York City.
We work in the courtroom and in the community to keep families together
and prevent children from entering foster care. Learn more here!
