Building from the overview from Session I, this session will focus on the ways in which issues of immigration law and status interact with family law. In particular, this session will examine ways in which interactions with family service and child protection systems create both opportunities and dangers for immigrant families and will identify principles for approaching the complex interaction of family and immigration law.
Participants will learn ways in which interactions with family service and child protection systems create both opportunities and dangers for immigrant families and will identify principles for approaching the complex interaction of family and immigration law.
