Trauma-informed Termination of Parental Rights Mock Trial

Hatton-Lovejoy Courtroom, Hirsch Hall

The mock trial is part of a "mini-course" offered to University of Georgia School of Law and School of Social Work masters students. In this simulation course, students learn about the child welfare system, trauma-informed lawyering, and interdisciplinary collaboration through classroom instruction and participation in a mock termination of parental rights trial. Guest faculty include attorneys, judges, and social workers. The 2-hour mock trial will be followed by a 1-hour discussion with participating students, faculty and conference audience.
