The Founder's Room at the Louisiana Bar center was jam-packed for the Child In Need of Care (CINC) CLE held on Friday, July 18 from 9:00 am to 4:30 pm.

The legal community was well-represented with more than 25 lawyers attending. The six presenters, accompanied by two law clerks, brought their best information to provide a solid foundation in the intricacies of advocating for children. By the end of the day, lawyers had everything needed to be able to handle CINC cases on behalf of The Project.

"This is a growing area of need for The Project. It was terrific to see such a great turnout. Our presenters really gave their all to make certain attendees are well-grounded to handle these cases. Thanks to everyone for their support," said Linton Carney, The Project's Chief Legal Officer.

Here's a look at some of the day's activity.

Presenters: Ayanna Butler, Jesse George, Rodney Hastings, Debra Weinberg, Marcia Arceneaux, Linton Carney.
