We will be joined by Special Guests including:
Hon. Michael B. Forte, Chief Judge,
RI Family Court

who will be stopping by to say hello.

Judge Forte, has called Family Court the state’s most emotionally volatile because of the sensitive divorce, child custody and juvenile cases it hears.

He committed to leading Family Court, going forward, toward a treatment-focused, rehabilitative court aimed at families as a whole and said he would create a women services unit and an infant protection plan.

He has served on Family Court since 1987and will join us to say hello.
