‘Child Support and Good Cause Webinar’ offered

The Michigan Judicial Institute and Friend of the Court Bureau will present “Wait…That’s Not How This Works! Child Support and Good Cause Webinar” Thursday, April 23, from 9 to 10 a.m. via Zoom.

This myth-busters-style webinar tackles the biggest misconceptions of child support and good cause head-on, separating “things we’ve always heard” from what policy says. 

Participants will explore real scenarios, uncover surprises, and leave with practical tips for having better conversations with families—while keeping safety, choice, and accuracy front and center.

Speaking at the webinar will be Kerrie Ann Shannon, policy analyst, Michigan Department of Health and Human Services Office of Child Support; and Elizabeth West, management analyst, Friend of the Court Bureau, State Court Administrative Office, Michigan Supreme Court.
