New Judges’ Page: Trauma-Informed Dependency Courts

The Winter 2015 Judges’ Page Newsletter is now available on CASAforChildren.org. This issue contains 12 articles that explain how judges and courts can lead the effort to implement trauma-informed policies, practices and services in dependency court systems.
The issue features pieces by both Mari Kay Bickett, CEO of the National Council of Juvenile and Family Court Judges and Michael Piraino, CEO of National CASA. Also read about creating a trauma-informed court, using a web-based tool for understanding trauma, as well as the perspective of a CASA supervisor on the use of a therapy dog to help traumatized children
