After 14 years, Sue is stepping down as Executive Director. Michele Cortese, CFR’s long time Deputy Director, will succeed her. This transition is a unique moment to stop and applaud Sue and our first 14 years, and support the growth of the organization as it builds on its innovations and success.
The COVID-19 crisis affects us all. As always, the Center for Family Representation (CFR) is working to keep families together. Our attorneys, social workers, and parent advocates continue to support families whose children are at risk of foster care or incarceration in Manhattan and Queens. Most courts are now using phone or video for hearings. You can reach CFR staff by email, text, or phone. If you are a CFR client, please call 212-691-0950 if you cannot reach your defense team or if you have a question about your case. EspaƱol
