Please join us online or in-person as special guest Myrna McCallum provides us with an overview of trauma-informed best practices within the legal system.
On-Line Training Option: "Introduction to Trauma-Informed Engagement" This five-hour training will explore how trauma presents in our workplaces, communications, and behaviours while offering historic and scientific context for the origins of our own trauma and response strategies. This course will inspire learners to develop their own trauma recovery practices which will strengthen their self-protection and self-preservation strategies.
In-Person Lunch and Learn: This one-hour session will provide an introduction to trauma-informed practice frameworks, and insights into the following questions:
o What is trauma-informed practice?
o How does it benefit lawyers, judges, and anyone who works with deeply traumatizing content, high-stress clients, and high-stakes situations?
o When you are involved in a process that involves people who have experienced trauma, how do you prepare?
o How do you interact with a person that has been impacted by trauma?
o What will you see and notice in a process that is becoming more trauma-informed?
o Proven strategies on how to make legal processes less traumatizing and harmful for everyone involved, including you
