PACCS Event: Child-Centered Justice in False Abuse Allegation Cases

PACCS hosts Janette Hermann presenting research on false sexual abuse allegations in custody cases. Learn child-centered judicial approaches & trauma-informed procedures for family court reform.

This research addresses a critical gap in family court systems where false sexual abuse allegations can cause lasting trauma to children and families. When courts fail to properly handle these complex cases, children may be subjected to prolonged legal battles, inappropriate placements, or continued exposure to unsafe environments. The findings provide judges and legal professionals with evidence-based strategies to maintain child-centered approaches despite biases and conflicting evidence. For families navigating custody disputes, this research offers hope for more trauma-informed procedures that prioritize children's wellbeing over adversarial legal tactics. The practical recommendations could significantly improve how courts protect vulnerable children while ensuring fair processes for all parties involved.
