CASCW 2026 Spring Conference
Meeting the Moment: Immigration and Child Welfare

April 22, 2026 | 8:30-4pm | Heritage Center in Brooklyn Center, MN The Carriage Hall

On Wednesday, April 22, the Center for Advanced Studies in Child Welfare will host its Annual Spring Conference – Meeting the Moment: Child Welfare and Immigration. As immigration policies and practices continue to evolve, child welfare professionals are increasingly called upon to respond to complex legal, emotional, and safety concerns affecting immigrant and mixed-status families. This conference will provide an opportunity for shared learning, dialogue, and collaboration to help child welfare professionals better understand the experiences of immigrant children and families, and to strengthen their ability to support them effectively. This event is free and includes a light breakfast and lunch for attendees, as well as free MN BOSW CEUs.

Youth Voice Group

About the group: The Youth Voices participants range in age from 13-26 years old, are diverse in culture (BIPOC, LGBTQ+/Two-Spirit) and their fostering experience (relative, non-relative, adopted, aged-out and parenting youth). This group has identified their goal as making changes so the foster care system becomes a safer, healthier, and a more loving experience for youth and families. Our goal is to equip Fosters or youth currently in the foster care system with the support, leadership skills and the access to the right practice and policy platforms to make their identified changes a reality.
