The Bruce A. Kaufman Center for Family Law is the first and only Maryland project to focus on families in transition and improving how families interact with the legal system. A unique resource for Marylanders, the Center provides innovative services to families who otherwise would not have access to the courts. We support family-friendly laws and family-focused decision-making by judges, lawyers, and parents. The Kaufman Center was named in honor of Bruce A. Kaufman.

The Kaufman Center is a Project of the Women's Law Center, a non-profit legal rights organization founded in 1971. The WLC advocates for a level playing field in the law for women and children. For more than a quarter of a century, the WLC has fought and won many battles to protect and preserve the rights of women--by educating the public and the judiciary on the effects of legal decisions affecting women, by monitoring compliance with the law, by seeking to change unjust laws and unjust lawmaking, and by implementing innovative programs to pave the way for systemic change.
