The PPH Benchcard was designed to increase discussion, judicial inquiry, and judicial engagement of parents. The tool captures the breadth and depth of discussion of a set of topic areas (from the PPH Benchcard), identifies whether the judge inquired specifically about each item, and includes a 5-item judicial engagement of parents section, with a series of yes/no questions. For example, "Did the judge ask if the parent had any questions?" (this item was one of the three direct questions to parents that judges should ask per the PPH Benchcard).
