About This Office
Each year, millions of children find themselves thrust into the American legal system as the result of a host of circumstances, from divorcing parents or neglectful or abusive homes, to paternity issues or even criminal charges. Too often, these children lack effective legal representation to ensure that their interests are recognized and protected. Whittier Law School founded the Center for Children's Rights (CCR) in 1994 to address this pressing need. It is one of the most comprehensive programs of its type among law schools. The Center's mission is, first and most importantly, to train students to represent the rights and interests of children. In addition, the Center seeks to serve as a resource for the community.
