SUMMARY:Elder Justice Decision-Making Capacity Symposium
DESCRIPTION:Every day the lives of older adults are profoundly and negatively impacted in both the criminal and civil justice systems based on mistaken assumptions and inadequate assessments of their capacity to make decisions for themselves. In order to raise greater awareness of these issues and improve how elder justice professionals approach these issues\, the Department of Justice will be hosting the Elder Justice Decision-Making Capacity Symposium\, a three-day virtual conference on April 19-21. \nThe Symposium will highlight what we know today about the aging brain and its impact on decisionmaking\, and discuss the protocols and tools available to assess decision-making capacity. The Symposium will then focus on the myriad of ways that perceptions of an older adult’s decision-making capacity can have profound implications on their treatment in criminal and civil proceedings. These may include elder abuse or fraud prosecutions not being pursued; unnecessary or inappropriate guardianships being imposed; and civil legal remedies being denied to older victims of elder abuse\, neglect and financial exploitation.   \nBy shedding light on the latest science as well as best clinical\, legal and judicial practices\, the Symposium aims to increase access to justice while promoting the self-determination of older adults. \nREGISTER

SUMMARY:Facilitación que Transforma: Construyendo Comunidades Virtuales Transformative Facilitation: Building Virtual Communities
DESCRIPTION:A muchas organizaciones de violencia doméstica\, la pandemia les ha llevado a cambiar la forma en que se ofrecen algunos servicios de apoyo. Es decir\, hoy en día muchos servicios de apoyo son ofrecidos virtualmente\, adaptándose así a la pandemia y a las restricciones con respecto a encuentros presenciales. Los grupos de apoyo son una parte importante de la intercesión de sobrevivientes de violencia doméstica. \nHistóricamentes\, han sido una forma de cultivar conexiones sociales entre sobrevivientes. El cambio a plataformas virtuales resalta que la facilitación efectiva de grupos de apoyo es fundamental para fomentar participación\, apoyo mutuo entre sobrevivientes e incluso procesos de sanidad. Los mismos principios se pueden aplicar a sesiones de escucha\, los grupos focales/de discusión y otros grupos en nuestras organizaciones. \nEste seminario web conversacional explorará las formas en que el campo debe adaptarse para construir comunidades virtuales efectivas. Afirmamos que crear un ambiente que invite la participación y que sea accesible puede fomentar cercanía aún cuando estemos físicamente separades.\nFor many domestic violence organizations\, the pandemic has led to shifting how advocacy supports are delivered. That is\, many supports are now being offered virtually to accommodate the pandemic quarantine and in-person restrictions. \nSupport groups\, a cornerstone of domestic violence advocacy\, have historically been one way to cultivate social connectedness for survivors. With the move to virtual platforms\, we know that effective facilitation is critical to engagement\, peer support\, and even healing in a support group space. The same principles can be applied to listening sessions\, focus groups and other groups across our organizations. \nThis conversational webinar will explore build engaging virtual communities. We assert that creating an environment that invites participation and centers access can bring us closer even when we are physically apart. \nREGISTER

SUMMARY:Trauma-Informed Investigations for Sexual Assault Cases
DESCRIPTION:This webinar\, sponsored by the National Institute of Justice\, will highlight the importance of conducting a trauma-informed interview of a victim of sexual assault. Trauma-informed investigative interviews provide an opportunity to not only meet investigative objectives and help close cases\, but also foster victim healing and engagement with the criminal justice system. Research indicates a sexual assault survivor’s experience and interaction with law enforcement impacts the level of future engagement with the criminal justice system. \nThe presenter will not only discuss the benefit of a trauma-informed interview\, but also techniques for conducting the actual interview and considerations for training associated with understanding trauma as applied to sexual assault victims. These techniques and considerations for engaging survivors of sexual assault from a trauma-informed\, victim-centered perspective support recommendations #2 and #22 of the National Institute of Justice’s National Best Practices for Sexual Assault Kits: A Multidisciplinary Approach. \nLEARN MORE AND REGISTER
