-
Have you ever relied almost exclusively
on a brochure and the assurances of a social worker to determine
whether a mental health placement was in your client's best
interests?
-
Have you ever had an evidentiary legal issue
arise in one of your cases, creating an immediate need for legal
research?
-
Have you ever had difficulty deciding whether
to ask the court to appoint a separate guardian ad litem to
represent your client's best interests?
-
Have you ever identified a systemic issue
affecting your child clients and found that you did not know
how to go about changing the system or publicizing the problem?
Once you have subscribed to the list:
-
To send messages to the ListServ, which will be distributed
to all members of the list, all you have to do is send that
message to KIDS_COUNSEL-L@LISTSERV.UCONN.EDU.
-
If you want to respond publicly to
a message you have received from the ListServ, you can just
use the 'Reply' button in your e-mail program and the message
will be sent to the list. Remember, this reply will be sent
to every member of the list, not just the person who sent the
message.
-
To respond privately to someone,
make a note of their e-mail address (it should appear in the
'From' line in your e-mail program) and forward the message
to their address, which you will need to manually enter in the
'To' box in your e-mail program.
-
You can view all KidsCounsel ListServ postings
from the past year in a convenient 'threaded discussion' format
on the web. So, even if you've deleted a ListServ posting, or
you want to read an entire thread on your own time (instead
of when the message arrives), the messages are easily available.
You can even search the available postings. Just visit the KidsCounsel
ListServ archive: http://www.kidscounsel.org/listserv/

Please note that your subscription will
renew annually. Follow the instructions you receive to continue

stop receiving messages, unsubscribe from the list, change your
e-mail address, etc.) to the list by visiting the 'Subscriber's
Corner' web page: http://listserv.uconn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=kids_counsel-l
