Family Access – Fighting for Children’s Rights and the Steel Partners
Foundation has announced that Dr. Steven G. Miller will be Co-Director for their 2021 virtual parental alienation conference “Helping Courts Understand the Phenomenon of Alienation.” The conference will take place on May 14-16, 2021. Steven Miller, M.D. is a physician who, among other things, specializes in forensic medicine and behavioral medicine. His sub-specialty interests include certain family dynamics and other clinical phenomena that are relevant to parental alienation, realistic estrangement,
pathological enmeshment, and other types of child alignment, including pathological alignment.
As Course Co-Director with Attorney Ashish Joshi, the Course is thus codirected by a forensic medical physician and a family law attorney. Although the title of the Conference is straightforward—the primary objective is to help courts understand parental alienation—other aspects of the course are equally important.
This virtual conference will focus on presenting effective strategies for family courts to identify parental and grandparental alienation and then deal with the issue. The problem of alienation has challenged family courts for understandable reasons, and the conference will present a toolbox for litigants who must turn to the courts for assistance.
