Free to members, $20 for non-members. At 11amCT/12pmET: Dan will discuss how individuals impacted by trauma and/or mental health challenges or disorders are often labeled as “toxic,” “difficult”, or “high conflict”, and how using such labels may result in implicit or even explicit discrimination. In addition to discussing how discrimination and bias manifests itself, Dan will provide resources and tools to foster access to justice, equality, and fairness in the court process, whether in litigation or court-annexed ADR. This event will be followed at 12pmCT/1pmET by our regular TAPM Member Meeting. We hope you can join us for networking and fellowship! This event has been approved for 1 hour of General/Ethics/Family CME and 1 hour of Dual CLE.

Free to members, $20 for non-members. At 11amCT/12pmET: As mediators, it is imperative to understand how trauma has affected our clients - and ourselves. Trauma presents in various ways at the mediation table. Let's look together at the signs of trauma and the behavioral changes in our clients. Being a trauma-informed mediator means that we make changes at the beginning of our process to help our clients stay engaged through difficult conversations. There are also changes that we can make ourselves to ensure that we can continue to move through hard conversations in the midst of our own trauma.  We will finish by discussing specific ways that we can help our clients feel safe enough to continue to move through the conflict, even with trauma present. This event will be followed at 12pmCT/1pmET by our regular TAPM Member Meeting. We hope you can join us for networking and fellowship! This event has been approved for 1 hour of General/Family CLE and 1 hour of General CLE.
