SUMMARY:Justice Clearinghouse Practical Mindfulness for Criminal Justice Professionals
DESCRIPTION:Training Overview\nCriminal justice professionals are busier than ever\, and many are feeling overwhelmed. You may have heard of mindfulness and wondered what it offers. Or perhaps you know what mindfulness is\, but you are looking to reinvigorate or begin a practice. The good news is mindfulness isn’t another item for your to-do list. Instead\, it’s a shift in perception\, one that can be enhanced skillfully to reduce stress on and off the job. \nIn this webinar\, Dr. Ed Sherman and Crawford Coates will discuss what mindfulness means and how it might benefit members of criminal justice agencies. They will explore some of mindfulness’s history and the science underpinning it and then explain how simple practices are uniquely suited to criminal justice professions. The practices discussed aim to reduce stress\, improve clarity\, rekindle a sense of purpose\, and inspire you to be the criminal justice professional you were meant to be. \nLearning Objectives\n\nGetting back to yourself\nRevitalizing your mission\nCreating clarity for yourself and your team\nReducing stress\nLeading with purpose\n\nRegister Through Justice Clearinghouse\n

SUMMARY:IHS | Supporting LGBTQ+ Youth: Challenges\, Resources\, and Professional Resilience
DESCRIPTION:Training Overview\nLGBTQ+ youth\, like all young people\, require environments that nurture their physical\, emotional\, and psychological well-being. They face unique challenges due to stigma\, discrimination\, and lack of understanding\, which can impact their developmental outcomes. LGBTQ+ youth can be at higher risk for suicidal ideation\, self-harm\, running away\, homelessness\, abuse\, and commercial sexual exploitation . These youth along with their families\, benefit from the support of compassionate\, informed professionals to provide services\, information\, and advocacy. \nThe LGBTQ+ community intersects with many other identities and communities. It is imperative that professionals maintain awareness of the intersectional needs of youth. In addition\, professionals supporting the needs of LGBTQ+ youth are having to factor in the rise of political initiatives to reduce or ban support of this population. This leads to ethical dilemmas and the risk of moral injury to the professional. Youth need consistent caring support from adults who are knowledgeable\, well-resourced\, and resilient. Professional self-care is critical so that adults can continue to provide ethical\, responsive care to the diversity of youth in the LGBTQ+ community. \nThis intermediate-level course is appropriate for social workers\, counselors\, psychologists\, and other human services professionals serving LGBTQ+ youth. \nLearning Objectives \n\nDescribe the unique challenges faced by LGBTQ+ youth due to stigma\, discrimination\, and lack of understanding including intersectional identities.\nIdentify a variety of approaches and interventions that support the developmental needs of LGBTQ+ youth.\nCreate a list of resources for support\, advocacy\, and information to benefit LGBTQ+ youth\, their families\, and their communities.\nDiscuss the awareness and implementation of professional self-care so that providers can maintain the resilience needed to provide ethical\, responsive care to LGBTQ+ youth.\n\nRegister Through IHS\nThis training course if free but $10 to receive continuing education credits.

SUMMARY:Justice Clearinghouse | Witness Preparation: It's Not Just About the Facts
DESCRIPTION:Training Overview\nMany people are not happy about being called as a witness\, for a variety of reasons. For some people\, it is an inconvenience\, or they’re weary of constantly changing court dates. For others\, testifying will require them to relive something that was upsetting or traumatic. Witness preparation is the attorney’s opportunity to identify the source of apprehension or reluctance about testifying and address it so that both the witness and the attorney are prepared to present the strongest case possible. \nIn this webinar\, we will talk about preparing witnesses to testify in a hearing or trial\, both generally and in cases that involve difficult or emotional topics\, like domestic violence or animal cruelty\, and that require additional sensitivity to the witness’ experience. We will also discuss how to identify potential challenges with a witness and what steps you may need to take to ensure a clear record. \nRegister Through Justice Clearinghouse\n

SUMMARY:Justice Clearinghouse | Understanding Law Enforcement Culture: A Deep Dive Into Why We Act the Way We Do & How to Work Collaboratively Together
DESCRIPTION:Training Overview\nLaw enforcement personnel bring unique personality characteristics to the profession\, but they also develop a distinct “police culture” over their careers. From their first day in the academy\, officers are trained to keep themselves and the public safe\, and to maintain “command presence.” This training significantly influences their interactions with the public. In modern policing\, officers are expected to juggle numerous roles\, often without adequate training to manage the physical and mental challenges of a shift. \nThis webinar will not only delve into the unique characteristics of the law enforcement personality but also provide practical strategies to foster collaborative work\, resulting in improved interactions and community relations. \nRegister Through Justice Clearinghouse\n

SUMMARY:MACMH Developmental Repair and the Intersection of Culture\, Race\, Trauma\, and Systems
DESCRIPTION:Training Overview\nIn order to help a young person heal from toxic stress we must hold in mind the core components of Developmental Repair (stress biology\, attachment\, family culture) while honoring the family and community’s experience of culture\, race\, and interactions with systems. In 2017\, Washburn Center and Northside Achievement Zone began formally training NAZ partners in the model bringing Dr. Anne Gearity’s concepts of joining and making sense to early childhood spaces. Each provider who uses these tools to increase emotional and behavioral regulation brings their own lived experiences to the relationship with young children and their families. When providers and caregivers are grounded in the principals of Developmental Repair and trust each other’s intentions\, we can work within and across cultures to serve the various needs of our scholars/clients. \nLearning Objectives\n\nUnderstand how unlearning assumptions about family culture can lead to better connections.\nIdentify ways adult/provider’s lived experience impacts how they take a child’s perspective.\nLearn how the intersection of racialized trauma\, development\, family\, and system impact scholar/client well-being.\n\nAbout the Presenter\nChantell Johnson\, MSW Candidate\nCommunity Wellness Program Manager & Family Academy Facilitator\, Northside Achievement Zone \nLauren W.

SUMMARY:CornerHouse | Multi-Session Forensic Interviews: When and Why They Should Be Considered
DESCRIPTION:Training Overview\nChildren and youth have individual needs based on their age and development. The CornerHouse Forensic Interview Protocol is a person-centered\, semi-structured\, and forensically sound process to gather information from individuals who are identified as victims and/or witnesses of an alleged crime. There are times when it is necessary to adjust a traditional model of a one session forensic interview for the unique needs of the individual\, including interviewing the individual over multiple sessions. This is identified as a Planned Multiple Session Interview (or multisession). Understanding when a multisession interview is necessary and how to conduct a multisession interview may be beneficial to maximize the individual’s ability or opportunity to share their experience. \nThis training will review the literature regarding multiple-session interviews\, discuss decision-making for selecting appropriate cases for multiple sessions\, and provide guidance on conducting a single forensic interview over multiple sessions. \nObjectives\n\nLearners will understand the benefits of multiple-session forensic interviews in meeting the unique needs of individuals.\nLearners will identify when a multiple-session interview may be necessary.\nLearners will learn to adjust the CornerHouse Forensic Interview Protocol into a Planned Multiple-session interview.\nLearners will explore considerations for the Multidisciplinary Team regarding incorporating multiple session interviews in current practice.\n\nRegister Through CornerHouse\nThis training being offered FREE to MDT members within the state of Minnesota.

SUMMARY:IHS The Power of Ethical Humility in Working with Adolescents
DESCRIPTION:Training Overview\nUsing ethical humility when working with adolescents allows professional expertise and client self-advocacy to complement one another. Ethical decision-making is particularly challenging with adolescents because legal rights\, ethical concerns\, and guidelines change as clients age. An ethical humility framework enables you to support your client’s growth and development while upholding your professional responsibilities. \nExploring the micro and macro levels of ethical humility in your work with adolescents ensures that you support your clients’ rights to self-advocacy in your professional role. The complex interplay of individual and parental rights with varied laws and guidelines requires careful consideration. As a child progresses from adolescence to adulthood\, their decision-making capacity evolves. Developing an ethical decision-making process ensures that adolescent clients receive appropriate care from professionals. Adopting an ethical humility perspective strengthens the professional’s ability to meet the client where they are. \nEthical decision-making is crucial for all professionals working with adolescents. This intermediate-level virtual course is appropriate for psychologists\, social workers\, counselors\, and other helping professionals who work with adolescents in their practice. \nLearning Objectives\n\nDescribe the framework of ethical humility as applied to working with adolescents.\nDescribe the impact of changing developmental stages in addressing ethical dilemmas with adolescents.\nUtilize ethical humility principles in communication with their clients to prevent\, assess\, and manage ethical dilemmas.\nDevelop a plan regarding professional consultation to address ethical dilemmas.\n\nAbout the Trainer\nLaura Gaines\, MSW\, LISW-S.\, is a trainer and researcher with a current focus on resilience as an individual and community skill.
