Children & the Law Committee

The Children and the Law Committee addresses legal issues that impact upon the quality of life for children and families. In furtherance of this mission, the Committee sponsors informational programming at the New York City Bar that highlights child welfare issues, reviews proposed legislation at both the state and federal levels, and discusses and supports innovative initiatives that advance children’s rights. The committee is also dedicated to lending support to other New York City Bar committees whose work impact upon our mission.
