About this event

The Administrative Office of the Courts' Department of Family and Juvenile Services is accepting registrants for Legal Training for Dependency, Neglect and Abuse (DNA) Cases trainings. For the first time, these trainings will be available online.

The free online DNA training curriculum gives attorneys an overview of Kentucky statutory and case law applicable to DNA cases and cases for termination of parental rights (TPR), with a focus on the federal law that requires reasonable efforts to keep families together and provide children with safe and permanent homes. The new curriculum also includes training on appellate and evidentiary issues related to DNA and TPR cases, as well as information on trauma and child development. The online curriculum will be offered in two half-day tracks. Tentatively, the tracks will be as follows:

Track 1

?Reasonable Efforts

Dependency, Neglect and Abuse

Termination of Parental Rights

Early Child Development

Track 2

Later Child Development

Evidence

Trauma

Appeals

Once you have registered, you will receive a link to join the training at the scheduled time. Some of the sessions may be pre-recorded. Materials will be available at least one day prior to the first session and can be found on the following website:
