Vella Carbone & Vinson, LLP was proud to sponsor the Friends of the Albany County Children’s Center’s 29th Annual Reception held on April 30th at The Skinny Pancake. The Albany County Children’s Center provides a safe place for children while their caregivers attend court. Funding comes in part from the Unified Court System’s Statewide Children’s Centers Program, but does not fully cover operational costs to staff the Children’s Center full-time. Additional funding is raised by the Friends of the Children’s Center. Jessica Backer Brand, Esq. of Vella Carbone & Vinson, LLP has been a member of the Friends of the Children’s Center Committee for a decade and retired Founding Partner Margaret A. Vella, Esq. was a founding member of the Committee. Vella Carbone & Vinson, LLP is committed to supporting the Children’s Center and the work that they do for the legal field.
