Juvenile Law Committee
The Juvenile Law Committee is responsible for studying and recommending changes in the areas of juvenile law, facilities and rehabilitation. The committee encourages and celebrates excellence in juvenile law practice across Georgia through sponsorship of an annual CLE event and child advocate awards. The committee organizes and co-sponsors the Celebration of Excellence, a graduation ceremony for youth in the state foster care system. In addition, the committee is in the process of researching, drafting, and editing recommended revisions to Georgia's Juvenile Code. The committee also promotes participation in and funding of juvenile representation through the Lawyers Challenge for Children Campaign.
The Juvenile Law Committee meets the third Tuesday of every month at 12:15 p.m. at the Bar Center. The next meeting will be held April 22, 2008, in the President's Boardroom.
