Dear Supporter,

Legal Services of New Jersey will once again celebrate Family Reunification Day with a formal reception at the New Jersey Law Center in New Brunswick on Tuesday, June 19, 2012 at 2:00pm. We hope you can join us. 

Part of the nationwide American Bar Association Family Reunification Month celebration, the event is an opportunity to acknowledge the success stories of the child welfare program and the people who make those stories possible. A successful reunification depends on the collective efforts of resource parents, caseworkers, judges, attorneys, support services providers, and parents themselves. Family Reunification Day highlights the extraordinary achievements that parents have made to reunite with their children, and honors the efforts of those involved in the child welfare system who seek to return children to their families.
 
 SPEAKERS WILL INCLUDE:
*The Honorable Thomas H. Dilts,
 Judge, Superior Court of New Jersey (Retired)
-A Judicial Perspective on the Elements of a Successful Family Reunification
 
*Matthew B. Johnson, Ph.D.,
 Associate Professor of Psychology, John Jay College of Criminal Justice
-A Mental Health Perspective: What Families need for a Successful Family Reunification  
 
*Nichole Goodwin,
