Description
Session 3: Trauma-Informed Lawyering in Troubling Times (2 hrs.)
The current high-enforcement landscape is troubling to immigrant survivors, many of whom have already suffered feelings of extreme fear and powerlessness, which may resurface. In this session, participants will delve into trauma-informed advocacy methods, from intake to decision. We will explore best practices for working with clients who have experienced trauma, and reflect on the ways secondary or vicarious trauma can impact effective advocacy.
Speakers:
- Anna Obregon, Alianza Nacional de Campesinas
- Rebecca Eissenova, Senior Staff Attorney, ASISTA
