"What started as a personal mission has become a shared movement: the Professional Alliance for Child Centered Safety,” – Steven P. Lindenberg, Ph.D., founder of PACCS
"Now, almost 50 years into private practice and thousands of hours of sworn testimony in high-conflict custody disputes, I have inspired and led like-minded advocates in turning fulfillment of my vision for advocacy for, prevention of and healing of traumatized children and their dysfunctional family systems into a shared mission represented as the Professional Alliance for Child Centered Safety." said Steven P. Lindenberg, Ph.D., founder of PACCS.
