Webinar Scheduled to Discuss Legal Rights of Grandparents

The number of grandparent and relative caregivers raising children is increasing each year, and our understanding of how to support these caregivers continues to evolve.

Legal services programs can play an important role in connecting non-parent caregivers to support.

This “WEBINAR FREE Legal Basics: Grandparents and Other Non-Parent Kinship Families” training will provide law and aging network professionals with an overview of legal issues surrounding non-parent caregivers, including tools and initiatives to support families. Participants will hear from expert speakers about the role of a kinship navigator program and gain insight into forming a state-wide kincare taskforce.

The seminar will be conducted on Wednesday, October 17, at 2:00 PM. To register, go to:
