Form 990, Part III, Line 4d: Other Program Services DescriptionOTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 4: Legal Education and Publications: LIFT produces interactive Webinars and written Legal Resource Guides on a variety of family law topics. The Legal Education Webinars are presented on a quarterly schedule and are free and accessible to the general public through our website. The Legal Resource Guides are multilingual, step-by-step guides to nearly 40 family law topics, including court process and procedure, litigants rights, and court navigation. In 2015 we produced four webinars and distributed over 200,000 copies of our Guides. OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 5: Judge for a Day: Run in partnership with the Courts, Judge for a Day (JFAD) provides public officials and private sector executives with a unique opportunity to shadow judges and participate in an interactive luncheon with Family Court judges and LIFT staff. In addition to raising awareness of Family Court conditions, JFAD illuminates LIFTs role in the Family Courts, and helps bring resources to Family Court and LIFT. Public Policy: LIFT continually focuses on catalyzing significant and lasting change in the Family Court system. We serve on a statewide committee to explore how resources can be expanded to include non-lawyer advocates in the court system. In addition, LIFT serves on the New York City Family Court Advisory Council, the New York City Bar Associations Family Court and Family Law Committee, and the City Bars Council on Children to express the interests and concerns of unrepresented litigants.
