Acting President's Message

by Jeff Golden, Acting = President ,=20 January 2000

There have been several organizational changes here = at FACE,=20 and the title of this column is just a hint of one of them.
FACE = president=20 Michael Fox resigned his position at our December, 1999 Board of = Directors=20 meeting. In his resignation, Mike said that, since FACE is now a = healthier=20 organization than ever, he felt that resigning now would have a minimum = impact.=20 He also needs to devote more time to his own business, and had some = health=20 problems to attend to.
We will all miss Michael. He was the driving = force=20 behind the establishment of FACE in New Jersey. At our first = organizational=20 meeting in 1990 in his office, we became the New Jersey chapter of FACE = of=20 Pennsylvania. During his tenure, we grew from that original group of = eight=20 people to have nearly 2,000 members and other supporters and contacts, = and we=20 incorporated as an independent nonprofit organization in 1995.
Many = of our=20 members benefited from Michael's pro se support. He was proud of the = fact that,=20 because of his assistance to others, he was accused of unauthorized = practice of=20 law. When he cited Supreme Court precedents exempting members of = self-help=20 groups from the UPL prohibition, the matter was dropped.
Watch the = next=20 edition of About FACE for announcement of our testimonial banquet in = late March=20 or early April. We will be honoring Michael for his years or service, = and=20 honoring other active members for their contributions.
We haven't = seen too=20 much of FACE director Everett Simpson for the past three years. That's = because=20 he was working in Lansing, Michigan and attending the Thomas M. Cooley = Law=20 School. Ed graduated this year, passed the Pennsylvania and New Jersey = bar exams=20 (making him the third lawyer that FACE has spawned), and his employer=20 transferred him back to New Jersey. We welcome Ed home, and congratulate = him on=20 his new law career.
Even with Ed Simpson's return, Mike Fox's = resignation=20 left us with only four directors. At our January, 2000 meeting, the = Board of=20 Directors elected four new directors: Sondra Lippi, Ron Neely, Mark = Sowinski and=20 Ron Svitak.
Sondra Lippi, divorced noncustodial mother of one = daughter, has=20 been a FACE member since 1996. She is a strong supporter of shared = custody of=20 children and fairness to all in family court, and an outspoken opponent = of false=20 accusations of domestic abuse. She is the owner of Sondra's Travel in=20 Haddonfield.
Ron Neely is the divorced father of three children. He = first=20 joined FACE in 1993, but left our area to work in Silicon Valley for a = few=20 years. In 1999, he returned to New Jersey to strengthen his relationship = with=20 his children. He now hosts our Camden County workgroup meeting and is = our=20 co-webmaster. Ron brings great organizational skills to our Board of=20 Directors.
Mark Sowinski is the separated father of three children. = He was an=20 independent fathers' rights activist until learning of FACE while = participating=20 in the 1999 Fathers Day demonstration on the U.S. Capitol steps in = Washington.=20 Mark, a native of Poland, brings to FACE his familiarity with = international=20 child custody disputes and immigration law.
Ron Svitak is our = youngest=20 director. Although he is not married to his child's mother, he is = married, and=20 his lovely wife Ulrikka is stepmother to his one son. Ron is a = professional=20 child care provider for special needs children at the Bancroft School. = He=20 volunteered to be our Membership Chairman, and he brings his youthful = creativity=20 and enthusiasm to our board.

We congratulate all of our new = directors on=20 their election, and extend our best wishes to them all.
And last, the = reason=20 for the title of this column: As FACE vice president, I became the = acting=20 president upon Mike Fox's resignation. We will discuss candidates for = FACE=20 presidency at the February, 2000 board meeting, the first to include all = of our=20 new directors.
Even though we doubled the size of our Board of = Directors,=20 there is always room on the board for more dedicated FACE members who = can=20 volunteer their time and their efforts to promote the Right of every = child to a=20 loving, meaningful parent-child relationship with both of their parents, = regardless of the parents' marital status. Get involved! Get active! = Come to a=20 meeting and let us know what YOU can do.

Jeff Golden, Acting=20 President
