Beyond the Bench 21: Coming of Age in Tough Times: Building Our Strength Together

December 14-16, 2011

In 20 years, Beyond the Bench has grown to become a well attended and highly influential forum for new ideas about improving outcomes for children and families. In its 21st year—a very tough year economically—the focus of the conference broadened to include family, juvenile, family violence, mental health, and collaborative court issues.  Beyond the Bench 21 brought together judicial officers, court professionals, social workers, legal services providers, educators, probation officers, youth, and other partners to facilitate multi-disciplinary dialogue, and forge collaborations among courts and partner agencies throughout California.
