Forensic Systems and Practices
introduces forensic systems and processes, exploring ethical, effective, and compassionate understandings and approaches during various social-justice system stages. Theoretical and structural considerations rooted in trauma- and strengths-based philosophies, and developmentally-informed practices frame topics, which may include health, family and relational violence, child custody, aging, youth/criminal justice, and special considerations and contexts, such as myths and misconceptions, neurodiversity/disabilities, and socio-cultural factors. Lessons center around real-life examples, case studies, group discussion/activities, and other interactive opportunities.
