The Michigan Judicial Institute (MJI) is pleased to offer the webinar “Moving Families from Surviving to Thriving” on Tuesday, December 14, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. via Zoom.

This training is intended for all child welfare professionals including jurists, court staff, prosecutors, attorneys, Lawyer Guardians Ad Litem, CPS and foster care workers, tribes, private agencies, law enforcement, mental health providers, and education professionals.
