"Structuring a Reconciliation Therapy Intervention"
We will now begin at 7 PM EDT with a success story of alienated family members. Hearing from those who have reunited is an encouragement to all of us. This event we will have a dad who was alienated from his son and is now reunited. Please join us early to see and hear from these family members. On Sunday, August 15, 2021 from 8-9 PM EDT, Brian Ludmer, B. Comm, LLB, will be our guest presenter for our international webinar. We have been averaging over 1,100 participants in 41 countries for our events. The initial event is of no charge to anyone. This is a ministry of Family Access-Fighting for Children's Rights. Because this is a one hour webinar, there will be no questions submitted for this event. Click on the link below to register via Zoom https://us05web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_lj-ZKizISAWExZoV00ZFng Deadline to register for this webinar event is Sunday, August 15th by 6 PM EDT. Please make this deadline so you do not miss this event! Given the pervasive failure of therapeutic interventions in the context of high conflict divorce (and parental alienation), the continued unstructured referrals of families by the Courts to therapy is problematic. Brian's presentation will focus on how to structure a therapeutic or psychoeducational intervention while the children are still also living primarily or perhaps exclusively with the favoured parent. Even if successful (because the family system requires a temporary timeout for the favoured parent), there may be much learned and crucial reports obtained from this process, which will embolden the Court to order a protective separation of the children. Further, if progress is made, it can also inform the Court about longer-term remedies and expanded parenting time, building on the more recent successes. Brian Ludmer is a Canadian attorney whose practice focuses on cases involving high conflict custody battles, denial of parenting time and parental alienation, as well as high net worth financial disputes. He is also a business and securities law attorney with over 32 years of experience. Brian is the Legal Column Editor and Writer for the bi-monthly newsletter of the Parental Alienation Study Group, an organization of professionals and others interested in the area with members world-wide. Brian is a frequent speaker for Family Access and is widely quoted in multiple media sources on family law issues. Brian has spoken at the first International Conference of the Parental Alienation Study Group in Washington in October 2017, for the Canadian PA Forum -a three-day conference – in 2009 and for PAAO, the Children’s Rights Council, the Canadian Equal Parenting Coalition and other organizations across Canada and the United States. Brian was also a featured speaker at the first Annual Conference of the European Association of PA Practitioners in London UK in August 2018. Brian has also been speaking to the Ontario Canada hospital network on PA Diagnosis and Therapy. Brian works as special counsel with US and Canadian attorneys and mental health professionals to assist targeted parents and grandparents. He has assisted in cases across Canada, the US.and overseas. Brian’s book: The High Conflict Custody Battle, which he co-wrote with Dr. Amy Baker and Dr. Michael Bone in 2015, is a resource that has been of assistance to countless families. Brian’s cases often involve custody disputes over parenting time. Brian’s cases have set important jurisprudence on the field of family law disputes, equal parenting and parental alienation. Brian has been an advocate for a rebuttable presumption of equal shared parenting as a solution to most high conflict parenting disputes. Brian is a co-founder of Lawyers for Shared Parenting, and an active member of several family rights organizations. He is the legal advisor to the Canadian Centre for Equality. In that capacity Brian drafted a detailed submission on a rebuttable presumption of equal shared parenting to the Justice Committee of the Canadian House of Commons and was an invited witness into its November 2018 hearings on Bill C-78, a current proposal to amend Canada’s Divorce laws. Brian anticipates making a similar presentation to the Canadian Senate when it considers the Bill in the Spring of 2019. Previously, Brian was the principal drafter of Bill C-560, a 2014 private members’ Bill introduced in the Canadian Federal Parliament to reform family law, which made it to second reading at the time.

MISSION STATEMENT
As a 501 C3 private foundation, our main concern is the children and grandchildren and then the complete family. Sadly the children and grandchildren who are alienated from family are being treated as pawns and property. They are neither. They are human beings.They should not be regarded as such by their parents or any other family member. We contend that it should be illegal to use children as pawns or instruments of spiteful behaviour in an effort to prevent them from interaction with ALL other family members. Our purpose and goal is to ensure the preservation of extended, traditional family relationships. In the process of this hell on earth called alienation, we need all the knowledge, support and resources we can get to help our children and grandchildren and then ourselves. This website, along with our international seminar calls with the leading experts in the world regarding alienation as presenters will be major tools and assets for all involved. Professionals who deal with alienation in helping families will glean much from this website and our international webinars as well. To contact us, please email familyaccessinnc@aol.com.
GOALS
- We will work in bringing awareness, education, and support to people on the subject of alienation and the effects it has on both the children, grandchildren and their families. Alienation is abuse! We will have many of our top experts and professionals regarding alienation in the world sharing information on their own pages here to help you learn more on alienation and other topics regarding alienation. We are also expanding our web site with much more information including locations of support groups in your area, professionals in your area who do have knowledge of alienation as well as blogs by experts and testimonies from alienated family members and also books that can help you on this subject of alienation.
- To offer international webinars with guest speakers who have expertise in the subject matter for that call in giving support and knowledge to alienated family members and professionals who work in the field of alienation. Parental alienation and grandparent alienation and all other family members is hell on earth as too it is for the children and grandchildren dealing with this. These webinars are a tremendous help to those going through this and those who work with those who are. There is no charge to any of our initial calls as this is a ministry to help those in need and also help professionals in dealing with this. Please join us.
HISTORY
In April 2012, Family Access- Fighting for Children's Rights was founded by Elaine Cobb who is also president. Elaine herself is alienated from her granddaughter Dare who she has never seen and is now 9 years old and her adult son Bryan who she has not been a part of his family's lives since December 26, 2010. Her granddaughter Dare is alienated from her whole side of her daddy's family. This is why she determined to try in helping make a difference in this abuse called alienation being caused to the children, grandchildren and family members.
In the beginning, her goal was to help those in the state of North Carolina where the founder and president, Elaine Cobb resides. In just a short time, Elaine realized that alienation was a huge epidemic which was indeed all over our world. She realized at that time she wanted to do all that she could to help those suffering through this hell on earth. This is her ministry. Elaine understands the pain and wants much to help in any way possible to help these children and grandchildren have access to all of their family.
She started the international seminar calls nationwide. In less than a year, she took the calls on an international level. Now Family Access- Fighting for Children's Rights helps in supporting 41 countries in educating as many alienated family members and professionals in regards to alienation through our international webinars.
Elaine also knew one of the biggest ways to defeat alienation is to bring more awareness and education to those who know nothing or very little about alienation. The website familyaccessfightingforchildrensrights.org was designed with that in mind as well as giving information to alienated family members to help them know all they can to get through this and one day hopefully be able to see their alienated loved ones. We also provide much support to these families in giving them these tools to better educate. It is also here to help professionals i.e.., attorneys, mental health professionals, judges, legislators, school officials, researchers, writers, child advocates, etc. There is much to learn and we hope to give all as much as we can to help.
