LISNS newsletters are a little different than most charities. We use our newsletters to pass along actual legal information on a particular theme. Of course we also give you a bit of info on what is going on with LISNS too, but the focus is on getting you the legal information. Feel free to browse the older newsletters to see the topics we have covered.

Theme: Vacation (Traveling with Children, Boating Safety, Young Workers’ Safety)
I turned to LISNS when my partner and I decided to move in together. He had three children, and I wanted to understand my rights and obligations as a step-parent. There was lots of information out there about divorce, custody, and access, but I could find nothing about my role as a new parental figure in the life of these children. I had personal, private – and important – questions, and nowhere to turn. I called the LISNS help line and got the answers I needed. Answers that enabled me to understand my situation and make better decisions as a result. Amelia, LISNS caller
