The Association of Family and Conciliation Courts announced in its July news that Leslie Todd, LCSW, ACSW, will again serve as the President of its Louisiana Chapter. Todd is a founding member of the state chapter, along the husband, psychologist, Dr. Alan Taylor.
Todd has been in private practice since 1990. She been a child custody evaluator for 20 years and has served several times on the Louisiana State Board of Social Work Examiners’ Custody Evaluations Task Force, said the report.
In 2007, she rallied Baton Rouge professionals to start an AFCC Chapter and served on the Louisiana State Law Institute’s Parenting Coordination Committee to enact the law, making Louisiana the 13th state to have Parent Coordinators. Except for a two- year hiatus, she has been on AFCC-LA Board since its first planning meeting in 2009 at the 46th AFCC Conference in New Orleans.
In addition to her work as a Parent Coordinator, mediator, custody evaluator, and therapist, Leslie travels the state offering Family Court-related workshops, encouraging young mental health professionals to enter the field, said the report from AFCC.
Association of Family and Conciliation Courts is an interdisciplinary, international association of professionals dedicated to improving the lives of children and families through the resolution of family conflict.
