The NACC Red Book Training is a 1-day survey course on Child Welfare Law and Practice. The course follows the NACC publication Child Welfare Law and Practice: Representing Children, Parents, and State Agencies in Abuse, Neglect, and Dependency Cases (Ventrell and Duquette, Bradford Publishing 2005) (the Red Book). It covers the major competency areas of dependency practice and prepares child welfare attorneys for day to day practice.
