What We Do

The Together We Can Conference is a multi-disciplinary event that is highly respected as the place to go for child abuse and neglect training for CASA, CAC, Judges, parents' attorneys, children's attorneys, social workers, Indigent Defenders, OCS workers, education professionals, mental health professionals, and more!

The TWC conference began in 2002 as a merger between two events that were very similar and often had the same speakers - the Families in the Balance Conference and the Justice for Children Conference. Since then we have several other organizations working with us annually to present this conference.

The Together We Can conference will offer in-depth learning opportunities which address policy and practice concerns. There will be keynote addresses focused on the latest trends and institute sessions allowing more intensive attention to the selected topics. An awards evening will be held on Wednesday to honor those who have demonstrated commitment above and beyond on behalf of children.
