Join the Fight for Grandparents’ Rights!
There is strength in numbers. Currently, not many states recognize the important role of a grandparent, especially when they have been very involved in the grandchildren’s lives. It is extremely confusing and stressful for the children when grandma suddenly doesn’t come around. Help us show solidarity and speak for those who don’t have a voice. Below is a link to a petition to help change the laws in family court and allow for reasonable visitation while the parents and grandparents heal their relationship. Sign our petition to make your voices heard about grandparents’ visitation.
