New York Summit on Children of Incarcerated Parents 

The first ever New York Summit on Children of Incarcerated Parents will take place Monday, November 15, 2010, from 10AM-4PM, at New York Law School and will bring together diverse professionals as well as individuals who are directly affected by this topic to make this vision a reality. To ensure that a concrete action plan emerges, attendees will participate in one of five “tracks” which will meet prior to and during the Summit. Each track will identify barriers, solutions, and opportunities for collaboration and resource sharing, and make recommendations for policy reform, practice change, and training. The five tracks are:
1) Legal Systems (law enforcement, probation, Criminal and Family Courts)
2) Corrections and Juvenile Justice
3) Family Stability and Child Welfare
4) Mental and Physical Health
5) Education

The Summit will also provide participants with updates on cutting edge research and innovative programs around the country for children of incarcerated parents. We will hear from young people who will inspire and challenge us to emerge from this day with a concrete roadmap leading to the realization of the above vision.
