This year, the four #UConnLaw journals partnered with the Center for Children's Advocacy to organize a holiday drive for foster children and families. The law school community not only fulfilled the gift requests, but also donated funds for food and other necessities.

Thank you to everyone who donated! Your generosity was what made this effort so successful.

Our first issue is off to the printer! 🎉 Here's a preview of what we're publishing in Issue 1 of Volume 56.

CLR is so grateful to these authors for trusting us with their work. We look forward to highlighting their scholarship on here in the coming weeks.

Prof. Briggs kicks off Panel 2 by teaching that whenever we review a #lawreviewarticle stating that #ICWA was passed because children were being taken, "just know that decades of history is being glossed over."
