Justice for Children is a non-profit organization that advocates for the safety and protection of criminally abused children when the system designed to protect them fails to do so leaving the child at unacceptable risk. Unfortunately, we can only directly help these children when we are made aware of their plight, and when we have qualified and willing volunteers available. Direct casework is only one way that Justice for Children seeks to protect children. We also work to create change on a state and national level by pursuing legislation and other public policy changes that affects and benefits abused children.
Justice for Children needs your help to protect the innocent. We rely heavily on interns and volunteers. Please assist us with the following:

- : Assisting in the preparation of a case-handling manual for all volunteers, as well as planning and / or participating in training sessions for lawyers whose experience in family-law matters is minimal.
