This training is offered by the Children’s Law Center of Minnesota and hosted by Stinson Leonard Street. Please note that this training is FREE for those who take a case with CLC (except for a $10.00 fee to run background check as it is a direct cost to CLC).

This training program prepares attorneys to represent youth in foster care. As a lawyer for a child in foster care, you will represent your client in juvenile court, identify and obtain appropriate services, and negotiate settlements. When you decide to do pro bono work for CLC, CLC staff attorneys and social workers will strategize with you, provide information about resources for your client, and help you assess your client’s development and education needs.  This program also provides updated training for current volunteer attorneys, judges, county attorneys, public defenders, social workers & other child advocates
