The Family & Juvenile Law Society provides a forum for students who are interested in practicing family and/or juvenile law in order to:

• Gather to discuss aspects of their future career goals and provide mutual support
• Network with attorneys practicing in the field
• Organize interesting colloquia for the student body on topics of interest in the field
• Advocate within the law school for continued excellence in education for future family and juvenile lawyers

Recent programs sponsored by the society include an education litigation seminar and a 13-week Guardian Ad Litem training program.

The society also has sponsored events to assist the New Haven County Diaper Bank and the Breast Cancer Awareness Walk.
